    C:\Users\Dhanu\Documents\Arduino\keypad\keypad.ino:1:22: fatal error: Keypad.h: No such file or directory

    #include

    compilation terminated.

    exit status 1
    Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Uno.

    This report would have more information with

    option enabled in File -> Preferences.
