CODE TO NOTE
ARRAY OF STRINGS:
const char* array_name [array_
length] =
{“string1”, “string2”...};
Makes an array of strings. The strings are stored
as constants, so they can’t be changed once the
program starts.
ROUNDING FUNCTION:
round(value_to_round);
This math function rounds a number up or down to
the nearest whole number.
RANDOM FUNCTION:
random(min, max);
This function takes a set of numbers and generates
a pseudo-random number from that set.
BUTTON DEBOUNCE:
delay(500);
This 500 millisecond delay at the end of the loop
adds button debounce so that erroneous button
presses are not detected by the RedBoard.
