Conditionals - while statement
|
|
|
|
This example demonstrates the use of while() statements.
|
|
|
|
It reads the state of a potentiometer (an analog input) and blinks an LED
|
|
while the LED remains above a certain threshold level. It prints the analog value
|
|
only if it's below the threshold.
|
|
|
|
This example uses principles explained in the BlinkWithoutDelay example as well.
|
|
|
|
The circuit:
|
|
* potentiometer connected to analog pin 0.
|
|
Center pin of the potentiometer goes to the analog pin.
|
|
side pins of the potentiometer go to +5V and ground
|
|
* LED connected from digital pin 13 to ground
|
|
|
|
* Note: On most Arduino boards, there is already an LED on the board
|
|
connected to pin 13, so you don't need any extra components for this example.
