1. A method of processing a bending event of a touch screen in a portable terminal, comprising:
- counting a number of touch sensing values of the touch screen;
comparing the number of the touch sensing values with a threshold;
determining that a bending event occurs in the touch screen when the number of the touch sensing values is at least equal to the threshold; and
performing at least one of correction of an error of the touch sensing values and a function of the portable terminal allocated to the bending event upon a determination that the bending event occurs.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for processing a bending event of a touch screen in a portable terminal. The method includes counting a number of touch sensing values of the touch screen; comparing the number of the touch sensing values with a threshold; determining that a bending event occurs in the touch screen when the number of the touch sensing values is at least equal to the threshold; and performing at least one of correction of an error of the touch sensing values, a function of the portable terminal allocated to the bending event upon a determination that the bending event occurs.
