The ATmega328 has 1 KiB of EEPROM.

kibibit != kilobit,

the whole 1024 bit EEPROM.

Which processor do you have - none that I know have that small an EEPROM.

Please, use the auto format tool before posting

Code:

float temperature = getTemp() * 1.8 + 32;

Maybe you deleted "getTemp" when you combined the sketches.
Try putting it back.

Don't forget to tell us your grade.

The fix I gave you (and another similar couple of instances of the same) fixed it for me.
Well, it compiled - beyond that, I'm not interested - I don't have your hardware (actually, I don't even have an Arduino)

What errors are you getting now?
Post your code

A crank or a cam?
Lead screw?

I don't use String for well-documented reasons (and I'm really old), but does

Code:

  hourstring = String(hour);

help at all?

I just assumed s/he was lost in BASIC.   
I posted the code because you hadn't, and I auto-formatted it because the author hadn't.

This topic has been moved to Gigs and Collaborations.

"Handy REM statements" ?

So, what is the sensor value for the brightest light source you have?

You can see numbers in your serial monitor.
I can't see those numbers.

See reply #7

So what is the serial monitor showing?
