Modify Blink

So with this challenge, we had to modify the light to do the specific commands instructed. This means that we had to modify the code so it gave a delay to light. I started out with the challenge of reading the code and understanding how it worked. After that we could place the wires, and light in the right position like the first challenge. After I added the correct code it made sense where to add the delays. Also I understood the difference between the HIGH AND LOW variables in my code.

So starting with this first lesson with making a light blink I had a few problems with connecting the wires in the right port. Also placing the resistors in the right place was confusing. Once I got the hang of it, it was easy to connect the light with the code and the breadboard. I also had a problem checking to make sure that the arduino was properly connected with the computer so it could function. Finally, we had difficulties because the first light that we used was burnt out. So we thought our wiring was wrong when it was just our lightbulb.
