UNDERSTANDING CODING (SKETCH)
• Coding is important
• It is one of the key components in micro-controller
• In Arduino, the coding program is called ‘Sketch’ and it’s written in
Arduino IDE (INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT ENVIORNMENT)
• Understanding coding helps you understand how your mirco-
controller functions
TO UNDERSTAND CODING
DOESN’T
MEAN ASKING YOU TO WRITE
COMPLICATED PROGRAM
We demonstrate simple program writing and introduce S4A program
that simulates your own program!
BLINKING PROGRAM CODING
void setup()
{ pinMode (13, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{ digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
delay (1000);
digitalWrite(13, LOW);
delay(1000);

}
PUSH BUTTON PROGRAM
const int buttonPin = 2;
const int ledPin = 13;
int buttonState = 0;
void setup()
{ pinMode (buttonPin, INPUT);
pinMode (ledPin,OUTPUT); }

void loop()
{ buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin)

If (buttonState = HIGH )
{ digitalWrite (ledPin, HIGH);
}
else
{
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); }

}
BASIC SYNTAX AND BASIC RULE
• setup() Setting Pin Mode, eg. INPUT or OUTPUT
• loop() Main Program written inside here
• ; Semicolon keyed in after each command. The IDE do not
understand ‘ENTER’
• {} Curly Brace. Must be in pair. Insert statement or condition inside

• // Single line comment. IDE ignore what you have written after // in
the same line

• /*……*/ Block comment. Must be in pair. IDE ignore what you have
written inside the block comment
BASIC SYNTAX AND BASIC RULE
• int Integers. Define a variable in integer type (0, 1, 13
etc). Can be used in naming pin number also
• digitalWrite(pin, HIGH) Write High (5V) or Low (0V)to the specific digital
• digitalWrite(pin, LOW) pin number specified

• digitalRead(pin) Reads the value from a specified digital pin,

either HIGH or LOW.

• delay (ms) Pause the time in millisecond. Delay(5000) means

delay 5 second
• if()…else
Setting up condition
BLINKING PRORAM HARDWARE SETUP

Input = Program
Output = LED
WRITING BLINKING PROGRAM
void setup()
{
pinMode (13, OUTPUT); //define pin#13 as output pin
}
void loop()
{ digitalWrite(13, HIGH); //send 5V to pin 13, LED turned on
delay (1000); //delay 1 second
digitalWrite(13, LOW); //send 0V to pin 13, LED turned off
delay(1000); //delay 1 second
}
PUSH BUTTON HARDWARE SETUP

INPUT = PUSH BUTTON

OUTPUT = LED LIGHT
PUSH BUTTON PROGRAM
const int buttonPin = 2; //name the pin2 to be buttonPin
const int ledPin = 13; //name the pin13 to be ledPin
int buttonState = 0; //define an integer 0 or 1 to determine the button state
void setup()
{ pinMode (buttonPin, INPUT); //define pin#2, buttonPin as input pin
pinMode (ledPin,OUTPUT); //define pin#13, ledPin as output pin }

void loop()
{ buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin) //read the button pin state

If (buttonState = HIGH ) // the button is pressed

{ digitalWrite (ledPin, HIGH); //turn the LED on
}
else
{
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); //turn the LED off }

}
 QUESTION??
HARD TO LEARN??

WE COULD START FROM S4A

(SCRATCH FOR ARDUINO) PROGRAM
ARDUINO LEARNING PROGRAM S4A
 S4A – Scratch For Arduino
 Graphic User Interface – ‘Play with
LEGO Block’
 Fun and Simple, Easier to
Understand. No Coding!
 How It works?
 Sending a ‘translator’ sketch to the
Arduino Board
 ‘Translator’ sketch would help you
to translate your GUI command to
machine understood language
UNDERSTANDING S4A
Input Translator Program

Hi There! My name is ‘S4AFirmware16.ino!

I’ll do the translation for you!!
THE PURPOSE OF S4A PROGRAM
1. Learn Programming Easier,
because NO Syntax error
2. Understand your program logic
flow Easier
3. Learn to write C++ Easier by
comparing both S4A coding and
C++ coding
We Have Provided 12 Projects in both coding for You!
REMEMBER: The code in the micro processor
is still “The Translator”, not the working code!!
Plug out from PC, the system becomes useless!

THE BEST LEARNING WAY
• Standardize use of wire color in any circuit. Make troubleshooting
easier. For Examples,
Red for Power Supply Black for Grounding
Green for Analog Sensor Blue for LED
• During troubleshooting, always start from identifying the
INPUT and OUTPUT circuit
• Swapping components to confirm the root cause
• Assign Projects According to student capability
We have 12 projects with all IDE and S4A coding ready
• Learn to write code with the help of S4A and by comparing the
coding of S4A and IDE 12 Projects provide 24 examples
• Hands On is always the Best Learning Approach
