Arduino Tutorial 15: Understanding Arduino For Loops

You guys can help me out over at Patreon, and that will keep this high quality content coming:

In this tutorial we will learn how to use the Arduino For Loop. Loops help simplify programming and are a very powerful programming technique.

You can get the following Elegoo kit, to follow these lessons and play along at home

You can find lots of great arduino content on our WEB site. Link to this lesson is here:

apologies everyone for not holding my breath in the first time

I'm a 52 year old truck driver and I still get excited when I see the notification telling me there's a new Paul McWhorter Arduino tutorial LOL

[daveharkin]

Every time I compile my code, I hold my breath and when it works I say BOOM! I do hope this is not going be a lifetime problem for me :-)

Paul, I'm 81 and retired from the airline industry as a software engineer. Thank you for making learning and using Arduino so interesting and enjoyable.

I taught middle school for 10 years, the students would have loved you. You have a gift. Thanks for the lessons, I'll keep hitting the like buttons!

For loops just opened a whole new world of possibilities. Great lesson!! I can't believe there are people that dislike your videos. If they can't find it here, they must be searching for the wrong things.

Paul -- I am a retired aerospace engineer and have taken on the Arduino as a hobby. Thanks for the lessons -- I will eventually use it on my home flight simulator!

Every lesson is amazing itself! Every lesson has its funny nuances as "holding breath the program to work" or "happy little orange" and many other! Thank you so much, Paul, for your super lessons! I really appreciate you making them!

And, Yes, i holded my breath and it worked! :D Haha!

P.S. Forgive me, that i used blue LED in every situation! I won't do this mistake anymore!

[colepdx]

Thank you Paul. I'm watching every minute of every tutorial.

[shuttlepodone]

Holding my breath made this lesson fun and reminded me how deep breathing helps one to relax and lets stress flow away! Thank you for another great lesson!

Hi Paul. Am enjoying your Arduino tutorials. I am using Tinkercad to simulate the practicals as I am at work in the middle of the Sahara Desert and do not travel with a box full of electronics in my bag.
Looking forward to working through the rest of the tutorials.

This is such an amazing series ! I'm glad you're one of those people that love to delve into the nitty gritty of stuff and show the mistakes you make so that we all can be more aware of those. So often people just blitz through these things.

[devmathur]

I've done every single project from every video and have an absolute blast while watching your videos!!!
Thank you so much for this series !!!!

[ewaldgartner]

Sir, I salute you! If I had a teacher like you when I had to go through all the programming classses, I probably would have liked it. I do now, that you for that! I love watching the tutorials, very clear, very informative. Again, my thanks!

[Nivek]

Four years later and i still held my breath with you! I'm so glad i found your tutorials. Thanks!

[jtsowers]

Paul, thank you for these tutorials. I bet you didn't think that three years later these videos would still be being used. I have always wanted to get into building pcb and small electronics and programming as well. I tried some years ago but gave up because I didn't have anyone who could explain it this way. for loops are no mystery to me any longer. Thanks again.

Shockingly im still hanging onto this educational series. Your a great instructor

Since it is almost 1/4 of this course playlist I would like to share my results! I did these 15 videos in 2 days because the explanation and the video format are just on another level therefore it was very easy to learn. I really enjoyed every second of this course. In fact, I tried Arduino courses before but they were not as great as this course is. I treated Arduino as just a piece of hardware but I never understood the depth of its work. I never thought deeply about physics behind this. Maybe that is why I never felt confident in my Arduino skills. Now I feel much more confident and I have so much motivation! Thank you, Mr Paul McWhorter! Much love from Kazakhstan <3

[andrewsmalley]

I've been loving these videos so much that I just sent a kit to my friend for he and his son to go through together. Thanks Paul!

[christopherwilliamson]

The little test at the start of this video with the blinking yellow and red light, It was the the first one i have done without looking back at something. Very Happy!
