1. A portable terminal comprising:
- a detecting unit for detecting the slope of the portable terminal;
a display unit;
an input unit having a plurality of keys;
a control unit for generating a code based on the slope of the portable terminal detected by the slope detecting unit and an operated key among the plurality of keys for displaying a pattern corresponding to the generated code on the display unit;
a code conversion table for storing a code corresponding to the combination of a 1-st sub-code representing the slope of the portable terminal and a 2-nd sub-code representing the operated key; and
the control unit being operative to generate the code based on the combination of the 1-st and 2-nd sub-codes with reference to the code conversion table.

Abstract
A detecting unit 5a detects the slope of a portable terminal 10. An input key 4 includes a plurality of keys. A control unit 3 generates a code C based on the slope of the portable telephone terminal 10 as detected by the slope detecting unit for displaying a pattern corresponding to the generated code C on a display unit 6.
