Switch statement
Demonstrates the use of a switch statement. The switch
statement allows you to choose from among a set of discrete values
of a variable. It's like a series of if statements.
To see this sketch in action, but the board and sensor in a well-lit
room, open the serial monitor, and and move your hand gradually
down over the sensor.
The circuit:
* photoresistor from analog in 0 to +5V
* 10K resistor from analog in 0 to ground
