LESSON 31: Understanding Arduino Arrays 

Glad you like them!

srduke. Funny!

hahahahhaah!

lol

🤣

Thanks for the kind words and glad to hear you are enjoying learning.

Great to hear!

Glad to hear that

You are most welcome

I had this problem and worked through it for hours with ChatGPT, and what I figured out is that in the Serial monitor you must have the line ending set to "No Line Ending" otherwise it reads the new line or carriage return as a separate value-0. Hope this helps!

Glad it helped

Perhaps you do not have a feeble mind, but have just had the burden of learning from feeble teachers.

@@paulmcwhorter No Paul, I have learned from you but your lesson 31 on arrays only covered the basics. Now I need to progress with others. I managed to compare the values and isolate the highest value but don't know how to get the index of the highest value in the array. Other teachers overcomplicate their explanations to show off. You are graciously gentle with beginners. (Humility is a virtue.) I have set up an array arrayS[10] with fix being the highest value in the array, magicNum is the index of the highest value The values are readings off a photoresistor mounted on an actuator sweeping 10 positions in the sky looking for the brightest spot. this is the part that is not working: fix=arrayS[0] for (k=1;k= arrayS[k]){ fix=k; magicNum=k; Serial.print ("k= "); Serial.print (k); Serial.print(" fix= "); Serial.print (fix); Serial.print (" magivNum= "); serial.println(magicNum); } but my magicNum keeps increasing. Do I need an else?

Thanks!

I really can not advise on this because it is very complex legally. When you start dealing with long distance RF communication, there are lots of laws, and it depends on where you live, and what type of licenses you have.

Thanks for the quick reply anyways!

Never mind...I see where you do use "grades."

Diminsion it the largest you might need, the use what is needed.

I guess I could've just finished the video first too haha!

Pascal Sampatsing There is no need to return() anything, you're still in the loop.. Just "empty the bucket" and you're fine.. (If this were a function, you might want to return the value from the calculation for use in the rest of the main program. Depending on how you declare your variables)

Wrong, It will keep looping in the void loop area

When you attach the Arduino, simply select the device type. Different devices have different numbers of and numbering of pins, so make sure your connected component pins are corrected in the code. The Arduino code is universal across Arduino models.

Yeah I have this same problem it asks twice for the grade

It would cause an array-out-of-bounds exception, and he should have at least mentioned it as a thing to look out for. You can deal with it by checking numGrades against your array size, preferably immediately after they input a number that's too large rather than waiting until _after_ they enter 25 grades.

Is your serial monitor set to no line ending?

@@paulmcwhorter OMG, I should really stop doing this until wee hours of he morning :) TY.
