Structure Comparison operators


// declarations and includes == (equal to)
void setup() { != (not equal to)
// this will run once at program startup. < (less than)
} > (greater than)
void loop() { => (greater than or equal to)
// this will be repeated until reset or <= (less than or equal to)
// power is removed.
} Control structures
if( condition ){ }
Syntax else if( condition ){ }
// This is a single line comment. else { }
This will execute the code between the curly brackets if
/* the condition is true, and if not it will test the else if
This is a condition if that is also false the else code will execute.
multiline if(i>5){
comment. digitalWrite(LED_BUILDIN, HIGH);
*/ } else {
digitalWrite(LED_BUILDIN, LOW);
{} - Code is grouped by enclosing it in curly brackets. }
; - Each line of code ends with a semicolon.
for(int i=0; i < #repeats; i++){ }
Constants Used to repeat a chunk of code a number of times (can
#define ledPin 13 count up i++ or down i-- or use any variable), e.g.:
The Arduino IDE has some built-in constants: for(int i=0; i<10; i++){
INPUT INPUT_PULLUP OUTPUT LED_BUILDIN digitalWrite(LED_BUILDIN, HIGH);
HIGH LOW true false delay(1000);
digitalWrite(LED_BUILDIN, LOW);
Include library’s or other code delay(1000);
#include <myLibrary.h> }

Variables delay(time);
byte A single byte (8 bits) value, 0 to 255. Causes a delay of time milliseconds.
int Integer, stores a number in 2 bytes (16 bits).
Has no decimal places and will store a value Digital
between -32,768 and 32,767. pinMode(pin, mode);
long Used when an integer is not large enough. Takes Used to set a pin's mode, pin is the pin number you
4 bytes (32 bits) of RAM and has a range from would like to address 0-19 (analog 0-5 are 14-19). The
-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647. mode can either be INPUT or OUTPUT.
boolean A simple true or false variable. Useful
because it only uses one bit of RAM. digitalWrite(pin, value);
float Used for floating point math (decimals). Takes 4 Once a pin is set as an OUTPUT, it can be set either HIGH
bytes (32 bits) of RAM and has a range from (pulled to +5 volts) or LOW (pulled to ground).
-3.4028235E+38 to 3.4028235E+38.
char Character, stores one character using the ASCII int digitalRead(pin);
code (ie 'A' = 65). Uses one byte (8 bits) of RAM. Once a pin is set as an INPUT you can use this to return
Arduino handles strings as an array of char’s. whether it is HIGH (pulled to +5 volts) or LOW (pulled to
ground).
int Number = 4;
long Counter = 1000000000000000000000000; Analog
boolean gotcha = true; analogWrite(pin, value);
float pi = 3.1415927; Some of the Arduino's pins support pulse width
char userinput = ‘B’; modulation, which is basically a block wave signal. This
char hw[13] = “Hello, world”; function controls its duty cycle: 0 = 0% duty cycle, 255
= 100% duty cycle. You can use this to control a servo,
Arithmatic operators or to control the brightness of an LED.
= (assignment) assigns a value
% (modulo) gives the remainder when one int analogRead(pin);
number is divided by another Returns the input value of an analog pin. A value
+ (addition) between 0 (for 0 volts) and 1024 (for 5 volts) will be
- (subtraction) returned.
* (multiplication)
/ (division)

int product = 4 * 2; // 8 The full Arduino code reference can be found here:
