I went back to this video again, to not to understand but to make sure that I got it right. I made my own examples and It works. this a turning point of understanding the essence of modular programming. it's a hallmark for me thanks to YOU. God bless you with health and serenity.
As usual a very easily understood lecture. Where i work no one shares knowledge so it is always very refreshing to sit down and watch one of your lectures. Thanks
Great video! I've been trying for several years to learn the Arduino, watching this video and that video, reading articles, and nothing ever fell together. When I started watching this series a few months ago, something finally clicked. I'm no expert yet, but I'm actually making progress! Thank you! P.S. I did catch the mistake (returning x instead of answer). If only I could catch my own mistakes like that! :D
You're Arduino lessons get the most views from the entire portfolio. I think a sequel to the NEW Arduino lessons would make for some great television this upcoming winter. Just imagine "Small microcontroller...big flavor!"
Each video brings solutions to my projects problems! Loving this :) Didn't know anything about coding last week. Not saying i'm a guru now, but now i'm able to somewhat read existing code and use it for my own.
Certainly clearer, thanks Paul. I wasn't aware of making the function Variable_Type () { when passing said Variable to the function. No wonder I was having some problems with local variable errors.
All making sense, thank you. That second example is useful. You can throw any float variable called x into that x_squared function from another function and it will throw the answer back.
Great video, learned a lot. I would LOVE to see a summary slide of all the details of this video and future videos. Like where does a new function go in the code structure......ALWAYS at the bottom......see that stuck when you said it. Like the low level explanation but would like to see some jargon in there like “scope”.....why is x in the void loop different.....because of function scope. Analogy would be looking through a beverage straw close up to your hand, you can only see a finger, not the whole hand.....scope is similar since the local variables only see the variables in that local function.
thanks a lot sir, this tutorial helped me to design my own (tech pendant technique) for robotic arm using an Arduino.. i have been trying for this a couple of weeks, finally got an efficient way... thanks
Thank sit ,you can also talk about passing multiple variables from the void loop to to the functions , and for returning values functions only return one value , so we can use another C language method to return multiple values.
Hello Paul, could these older "Orange shirt" set be made available as a classic Arduino set as well as the new "Gold shirt" videos. This particular video and 32 & 33 are just what I needed as I have a bad case of "code writers block". Going through these videos helps unblock. Invaluable as always!
Thank you for another very helpful video. how would you go about sending and or receiving multiple variables to a function? if it is possible I'll bet that was already your plan for the next lesson LOL.
Hi Paul, excellent lesson!! do you think you could do one with the function out side the Arduino IDE, using a Header file and CPP file and how to build that in the Arduino IDE ??
Love your tutorials. In function definition avGrades() you return average and then continue the function definition with bucket = 0; Doesn't 'return' terminate a function so that bucket=0; will not be executed? Thanks for your sharing your expertise. I could be mistaken as I mix up javascript, python, and arduino C in my head.
One problem for me to follow this tutorial lessons is that Sparkfun is native to America, thus it is kind of difficult for a non-North Americans to collect all the modules/gear that we could use together with the Arduino board. For instance, I had a hard time to procure the colour sensor in China. As a result, I had to skip some lessons in this tutorials and jump into these later ones which do not use thoe modules. Other than that, the tutorial is PERFECT!!!
sir thank you so much for your uploads on arduino programing lessons sir sometime in future if possible make a lesson explaining arduino code for 8x8x8 led cube
Hi Paul, amazing tutorials. It will be highly appreciated if you can help me with my SD card file issue, I need to create a new file to store new data instead of losing the previous data by overwriting. e.g when start sensor the program create file 1, then when switched off then switched on I need the program to create file 2 instead of writing on the same file 1.
Will you go for using keypads (4*4) I had made a door lock with that but facing some problem while changing the password without connecting to a computer . Help Me Sir , if you can find sime time for keypads because i know you are busy with your stuff but if you can then please do it . Again thanks for sharing your excellent knowledge
great video but something has been very wrong with the audio in the last 2 videos, very cracky sounding and i cant turn it up enough to hear you :/ thanks for the great videos, keep them coming!
Thank a lot for your video lessons they are great I have a question for you . I have a lot of difficulties to parse values from this function to an other one . I need those int root in an other function Alarme to compare hour and mn received with esp8266 time clock system void firebasedata(){ Firebase.stream("/Alarme/", [](FirebaseStream stream) {
I've been beating my head against a brick wall for a while on this problem, I haven't tested it yet, but it passes the smell test. Basic programming uses the command "gosub", I've got a hint for arduino, simpler is better.
Lucky you... (actually I'm a bit envious - thumbs down).... But I think that no one comes close to Prof. Paul.... and... I don't think it's just good work - FYI it's nothing less than GREAT WORK
Yea I need to know how to pass strings and files. I'm trying to use a Bluetooth, to ask an sdcard, for a file, one of 320 files , with very long names, and get back from the file ,2 usable servo numbers ,servoA and servoB, from the sdfile of my choice. Sound complicated ? Yes it is . I could be years away from building this code.

Thanks Paul, I really appreciate your videos.
Can't wait for your next video. Keep on moving with function. You are so good in explanations.
You are a Great teacher Paul! Thanks for this series as well as your others.
Great video. Literally so helpful. I've watched more hours of you than most other youtubers and the other ones are just entertainment
Another great video! Thank you, always look forward to your uploads!
Watched many videos on functions.
This guy explain it THE BEST way you can imagine.
Great owrk Paul, love this video, finally understand it !
u r a life saver man!!!!plzzz upload your lecture regularly as humanly as possible!!! Thank you soo much man!!!!
As usual a very easily understood lecture. Where i work no one shares knowledge so it is always very refreshing to sit down and watch one of your lectures. Thanks
Thanks for being so animated and enthusiastic!!! It really helps me to better capture the knowledge.
Thank you for taking the time to do for all your videos. They are great.
Great lesson Mr. Mcwhorter, I've learned a lot and you explain it well. I look forward to future lessons. Thank you. ♾
Such a great video and an even better teacher. Thank you

Excellent video. Thank you Paul! It explains a lot!
I just ran across thesetutorials,they are very well done, and extremely informative.

Great video I was struggling with using function now I understand where I was going wrong.
Some of the best stuff I have learned!!
Learned a lot, thanks for the clear explanation.
Thanks, was looking everywhere trying figure out how to pass a variable from loop to another function
Clear explanation, I like your videos.
All making sense, thank you.
That second example is useful. You can throw any float variable called x into that x_squared function from another function and it will throw the answer back.
Excellent!
Thanks for another great video! Looking forward to #35
EXCELLENT selection of topics, thank you!

Thank you, kind sir. This is absolutely excellent!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for your great lessons! Love your content... Kind regards from Germany
This is really helpful thank you and very well explained. Thank you.
Excellent tutorial Paul, thanks ..
thanks a lot sir, this tutorial helped me to design my own (tech pendant technique) for robotic arm using an Arduino.. i have been trying for this a couple of weeks, finally got an efficient way... thanks
Excellent video sir
I was struggling with these
THANK YOU
Thank you sir ...i can understand your explanation very easily ...it helps me a lot for my project..
777 views and 70 likes. Very nice. By the way Paul is the only person whom I listen on the Normal Speed not to miss anything.
Thank sit ,you can also talk about passing multiple variables from the void loop to to the functions , and for returning values functions only return one value , so we can use another C language method to return multiple values.

Great lesson! thank you.
Very helpful. Hoping you cover passing arrays in the next video.
Wonderful video
Thank you for your time!!
Best as ever!!
Thank you for another very helpful video. how would you go about sending and or receiving multiple variables to a function? if it is possible I'll bet that was already your plan for the next lesson LOL.
just another great lesson :)
thanks Paul for great video.....just try to finish coffee till end of lecture😂😂
You know, my coffee machine just broke, so I am very sad.
Everything make sense... tanxs so much
Thanks again for another great leseon.
best teacher
Excellent ....
Good lesson, thank you very much.
Thanks for every video
Hi Paul, excellent lesson!! do you think you could do one with the function out side the Arduino IDE, using a Header file and CPP file and how to build that in the Arduino IDE ??
Sorry I figured it out, on the upper right you can click new tab and name the files with a .h and .cpp extension.
Nice paul.i thank u so much
Please how I get ur Mail address I have some problem in I will like to share with u please
I love your videos, Please make video series on Esp8266 (Generic or Node mcu), Serial Communication from Java or C# to Arduino, DC and Stepper motors
Love your tutorials. In function definition avGrades() you return average and then continue the function definition with bucket = 0; Doesn't 'return' terminate a function so that bucket=0; will not be executed? Thanks for your sharing your expertise. I could be mistaken as I mix up javascript, python, and arduino C in my head.
I too think that the return terminates the function, but Paul hasn't repeat the input of grades so we couldn't see that issues on the average
Thanks Paul!
Mr.McWhorter please make another lesson about "switch, case" and state machines. thanks.
Sir also make videos series on pic, AVR, ARM microcontrollers
One problem for me to follow this tutorial lessons is that Sparkfun is native to America, thus it is kind of difficult for a non-North Americans to collect all the modules/gear that we could use together with the Arduino board.

Other than that, the tutorial is PERFECT!!!
void setup() {
Serial.begin (9600);
}
void loop() {
float x;
float x2;
Serial.println("What number do you want to square? ");
while (Serial.available()==0){
}
x =Serial.parseFloat();
x2=x_squared(x);
Serial.print(x);
Serial.print("squared is equal to");
Serial.println(x2);
}
float x_squared(float x ){
float answer;
answer = x*x;
return answer;
}
Thanks Paul :)
lifesaver! thank you!
thank you, thank you. I got i now(passing variables).
sir thank you so much for your uploads on arduino programing lessons
sir sometime in future if possible make a lesson explaining arduino code for 8x8x8 led cube
Please do a tutorial on RFID reader. I am having trouble understanding and have nobody to turn to.
I am looking forward to tutorials on spi ,i2c communications, learning to read data sheets, atmega 328 programming....
Hi Paul, amazing tutorials. It will be highly appreciated if you can help me with my SD card file issue, I need to create a new file to store new data instead of losing the previous data by overwriting.

Help Me Sir , if you can find sime time for keypads because i know you are busy with your stuff but if you can then please do it .
Again thanks for sharing your excellent knowledge
My averages keeps on compounding the result from previous calculations and I can not figure it out. Code is the same as far as I can tell.
you have to set your bucket = 0 at the end of the void loop so that it resets the average calculation.
how to return multiple values. please help
what if i want two return two variables?
great video but something has been very wrong with the audio in the last 2 videos, very cracky sounding and i cant turn it up enough to hear you :/ thanks for the great videos, keep them coming!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
👏👏👏
Thank a lot for your video lessons they are great I have a question for you . I have a lot of difficulties to parse values from this function to an other one . I need those int root in an other function Alarme to compare hour and mn received with esp8266 time clock system

i ws looking for this stuff and i have a good teacher now i no what to do this winter i am 88 years old
Congratulations on being a life long learner. Keep it up!
I've been beating my head against a brick wall for a while on this problem, I haven't tested it yet, but it passes the smell test. Basic programming uses the command "gosub", I've got a hint for arduino, simpler is better.
BOOM==brilliant.
Hello sir, please make a tutorial on how to establish communication between two Arduino. I really need this🙏🙏🙏
Did you ever find out how to do this?
You remind me of my Professors. Great video. Keep up the good work.
Lucky you... (actually I'm a bit envious - thumbs down).... But I think that no one comes close to Prof. Paul....
and... I don't think it's just good work - FYI it's nothing less than GREAT WORK
👏👍
Why not create a new tab? Then all you have to do is import to your next project and call it in your main (loop).
That is a dark cup of coffee paul lol
Yea I need to know how to pass strings and files. I'm trying to use a Bluetooth, to ask an sdcard, for a file, one of 320 files , with very long names, and get back from the file ,2 usable servo numbers ,servoA and servoB, from the sdfile of my choice. Sound complicated ? Yes it is . I could be years away from building this code.
I'm here after completing Arduino new tutorials and Robotics 18 tutorials..
plesase explain it by simple example
Open my eyes.
