thank you for read
Edit ****
int ledPin = 40; // LED connected to digital pin 13
int ledValue = LOW; // previous value of the LED
long ledStartTime = 0; // will store last time LED was updated
long ledBlinkInterval = 3000; // interval at which to blink (milliseconds)
int buttonPin = 22; // an active-high momentary pushbutton on pin 2
int buttonValue = HIGH; // the current state of the button
long buttonPressTime = 0; // will store the time that the button was pressed
void setup()
{
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output
}
void loop()
{
// Check to see if the button is pressed. If so, mark the time. When the
// button is released, calculate how long it was pressed, and make the led
// blink at the same rate.
buttonValue = digitalRead(buttonPin);
// button press
if (buttonValue==LOW && buttonPressTime==0) {
buttonPressTime = millis(); // capture the time of the press
}
// button release
if (buttonValue==HIGH && buttonPressTime!=0) {
ledBlinkInterval = millis() - buttonPressTime; // set the new flash interval
buttonPressTime = 0; // clear the button press time
}
// check to see if it's time to blink the LED; that is, is the difference
// between the current time and last time we blinked the LED bigger than
// the interval at which we want to blink the LED.
if (millis() - ledStartTime > ledBlinkInterval) {
ledStartTime = millis(); // remember the last time we blinked the LED
// if the LED is off turn it on and vice-versa.
if (ledValue == LOW)
ledValue = HIGH;
else
ledValue = LOW;
digitalWrite(ledPin, ledValue);
}
}
i was missing a part, sorry...yes compile and works, basically This code places intervals of time to blink, and I need is, if I press a button X number of times the LED stays lit X amount of time and turns off after the time expires
