I bought an Arduino as well as a Wii Nunchuck controller a while back after seeing all the youtube videos. I never figured out how to use the Nunchuck with the Arduino so gave up for a while but decided today it was about time I figured it out.
The last thing I remember doing was control a blinking LED with a potentiometer but I don't really understand much beyond that.
I'd like to simply make an LED turn on by pressing one of the buttons on the Nunchuck for a beginner project. I've looked at all the code around the internet but have no idea what the Nunchuck is doing when loaded onto the Arduino or how to get it to do anything.
I'm not asking someone to write the code for me, I'd just like some help understanding how to use the Nunchuck to just "do stuff"! I downloaded some example code from windmeadow, todbot and other places but can't understand the code enough to begin to modify it to do even the simplest thing.
I would appreicate it if anyone has some suggestions on some specific projects I should try first to become a little more familiar with the Arduino programming environment. If anyone can explain to me how the Nunchuck code is supposed to work in a very simple way that would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help the Arduino community can give me!
