Serial monitor data coming back corrupted

Hey guys, for some reason when watching my serial monitor for testing this code, i am receiving little question mark emoji looking characters. Any solutions???

int sequence[30];
int currentSize = 0;

void append(int value) {
  sequence[currentSize++] = value;
}

void setup() {
randomSeed(analogRead(0));
Serial.begin(9600);

for(int i; i<10; i++){
  append(random(3));
  Serial.print(sequence[i]);
}


}

Hi,
Have you got the IDE baud rate set at 9600 as well.

Thanks.. Tom... :grinning: :+1: :coffee: :australia:

Yes I tried that, didn’t work, but I have solved the problem now, by simply adding a delay from when the serial board begins and when it is printed.

Thanks though

What board do you have? There are solutions for firmware based Serial boards.
