Description

 Make the LED blink by programming the Arduino and connecting a  breadboard.

Materials

 3 220-ohm resistors

 3 LEDs

 Arduino board

**Note** I added two other LEDs to make things more colorful by adding two other ints "ledPin2" and "ledPin3". I gave them each a small delay and ran them in the same loop, creating a flowing blinking pattern.

Code

int ledPin = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13
int ledPin2 = 12;
int ledPin3 = 11;

void setup() // run once, when the sketch starts
{ pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(ledPin2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(ledPin3, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output }

void loop() // run over and over again
{ digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // sets the LED on
delay(100); // waits for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin2, HIGH); // sets the LED on
delay(100);
digitalWrite(ledPin3, HIGH); // sets the LED on
delay(100);
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // sets the LED off
delay(100); // waits for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin2, LOW); // sets the LED off
delay(100); // waits for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin3, LOW); // sets the LED off
delay(100); // waits for a second }
