Beginning Arduino Programming

Summary

With that, we wrap up our discussion of advanced functions. Now we know how to create a hardware interrupt and the corresponding interrupt service routine that will cause the Arduino to drop everything and perform the code in the specified function when the interrupt is triggered. We looked at how to write our own functions, which included talking about how functions work along with function parameters and function returns. And, we even checked out a few functions for timing and randomness that we had not been able to discuss properly before now.

From here, we are going to explore a unique type of variable called an array and because inevitably arrays will begin to consume large chunks of the Arduino microcontroller's memory, we will ...
