Arduino programming? | Model Engineer
Except that I would be tempted to (kindly and respectfully) strangle terse programmers (not really).
Right now I am wrestling with a Python .
Excellent Python joke; not heard that one before!
Terse programming I can only ask forgiveness for. I know I ve gone too far when I can t understand my own code. And it s deeply shocking to come back to a year old program and immediately see the work of pure genius I believed it to be is actually clumsy, obscure and inefficient.
Anyway, in defence of my terse example above, I thought I should test it. Found a 7 segment display and breadboarded it with a Nano. Of course it didn t work! However the mistake was my 7-segment display happens to be a common anode type rather than the common cathode display used by Malc. Common cathode LEDS are earthed and lit up by putting positive volts on the segments. Common anode are the other way round, ie the Common Anode is made positive and the segments are pulled down to earth to light them. The displays are inverts of each other. Oh dear.
