Arduino Lesson 6 -Arduino Functions Explained: The Secret to Smarter Robotics!

Ready to take your robotics skills to the next level? In this video, we explore the power of functions in Arduino programming. Learn how to simplify your code, organize your projects, and create reusable blocks of logic for efficient and smart robotics. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your coding practices, this comprehensive overview will set you on the path to mastery!

Here is code written in the previous lessons :)


                    /*
                    AnalogReadSerial
                  
                    Reads an analog input on pin 0, prints the result to the Serial Monitor.
                    Graphical representation is available using Serial Plotter (Tools > Serial Plotter menu).
                    Attach the center pin of a potentiometer to pin A0, and the outside pins to +5V and ground.
                  
                    This example code is in the public domain.

                  */
                  
                  // the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
                  void setup() {
                    // initialize serial communication at 9600 bits per second:
                    Serial.begin(9600);
                  }
                  
                  // the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
                  void loop() {
                    // read the input on analog pin 0:
                    int sensorValue = analogRead(A0);
                    // print out the value you read:
                    Serial.println(sensorValue);
                    delay(1);  // delay in between reads for stability
                  }
