Mastering Blockchain Programming with Solidity

Example

Let's take an example of a transaction where you want to transfer 0.1 ETH to your friend. The following are the values for the transaction fields you would have to fill while creating a transaction:

Field name	Value
From	0xff899af34214b0d777bcd3c230ef637b763f0b01
To	0xc4fe5518f0168da7bbafe375cd84d30f64cda491
Value	0.1 ether
Gas limit	30,000
Gas price	0.000000021 ether (21 gwei)

 

You can also refer to Chapter 4, Learning MetaMask and Remix, where we have demonstrated how to use MetaMask to initiate transactions. 

Once the transaction is sent and confirmed on blockchain, you can see its status on block explorer (etherscan.io) as follows:

Let's calculate the values using ...
