Taking it Further
Q: How could we modify the code to cause the LEDs to behave like airport runway
lights?
A: See below for one possible solution (Can you modify the loop to test at the top?)
Write Code like a Pro
In this experiment we use binary (%) notation quite frequently – this is a handy tool
when our programming editor (like the BASIC Stamp IDE) allows it. This bit of code,
for example:
… is far easier to
When dealing with binary inputs (e.g., buttons or switches) or outputs (e.g., a bank
of LEDs), use binary notation to help yourself (and others) “see” the operation of the
code.
