Arduino Switch (cas) l'état, utilisé avec entrée série

An if statement allows you to choose between two discrete options, TRUE or FALSE. When there are more than two options, you can use multiple if statements, or you can use the switch statement. Switch allows you to choose between several discrete options.

This guide demonstrates how to utilize a switch to activate one of multiple LEDs depending on a received byte of data through serial communication. The drawing pays attention to serial input and activates a separate LED for the letters a, b, c, d, or e.

Circuit

Five LEDs are attached to digital pins 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in series through 220 ohm resistors.

To make this sketch work, your Arduino must be connected to your computer. Open the Serial Monitor, and send the characters a, b, c, d, or e, or anything else.

Switch statement  with serial input

Demonstrates the use of a switch statement.  The switch
statement allows you to choose from among a set of discrete values
of a variable.  It’s like a series of if statements.

To see this sketch in action, open the Serial monitor and send any character.
The characters a, b, c, d, and e, will turn on LEDs.  Any other character will turn
the LEDs off.
