Summary


We were introduced to a whole bunch of new things in this chapter. Let's recap what we learned:

  • We created a problem statement for our project, which outlines the problem we are going to solve

  • We learnt how to make a flow chart, which describes the flow of how our code and project will work

  • We learned about Arduino's I/O pins , which take input from the outside world and hence sense its surroundings using sensors, and also give output, which can control things such as motors, buzzers, lights, and so on

  • We learned about logic levels and how they describe the state a signal is in

  • We did a great deal of code and learned about various tools that help the Arduino think:

    • The assignment operator = that gives a value to a variable

    • How to use functions and pass function parameters to the functions that allow them to work properly

    • We looked at the If condition that helps the Arduino make decisions depending on relational operators, one of which is ==, which compares to see whether two variables have...
