Arduino Based Coin Operated Solar Charging Station

Using Arduino Programming Questions
1

Hi guys. I need some help about the code of arduino which is i'm going to use to our project in school. That is the Arduino based coin operated solar charging station. Hope a positive response. Thank you.

welcome. Have you got any code to post or are you still on the planning stage?

still on the planning stage..

Do you have any specific questions?

Yes. What is the code for this .?

There isn't one yet. You have to write it.

This is a place to get help with your code. Write some code and we'll help you get it right.

There is another section of the forum called Gigs and Collaborations where you can offer to pay someone to write the code for you if that is what you are wanting. But nobody here does other people's school projects for them for free. You gotta do your own homework.

I'm sorry. Thank you anyway.

if you are interested in learning and you are willing to spend 10-20 hours reading and practicing writing/testing basic code im sure you can write most of the code yourself.

That's 20 hours of learning verses 20 hours of surfing you-tube.

if interested drop back in and we can find you a pdf manual that will at least explain the basics like how to connect a board and how to write a program.

I'm willing and interested.

You may find some useful stuff in Planning and Implementing a Program but it was not written for a complete beginner.

@MegdeLeon20, do not cross-post. Other threads removed.

Willing and interested to have us tell you the answers? Or willing and interested to go find them?

The second one.

look on line for a manual call "begineer c programming for arduino" in pdf format.

Read the first 120 pages that will take about 4 hours. Once you get that far list the hardware you plan to use and find programming examples for each piece of hardware.

Then the fun begins ........... make a plan which will be a list of simple instructions.

Think of explaining how things are done and in what order like you are trying to explain the way the project works to a 5 year old. (5 year olds ask why all the time)

1/ insert coin

5 year old " what coin"

1a/ coin must be a quarter

5 year old " what if I put a nickel in the coin slot instead"

1b/ if the coin is not a quarter open reject slot so coin is returned

this list will be long but its easy to convert into code.

this is a link to a beginners kit that will help with some basic code examples

you don't need the kit just look at the program examples
