009: Occult Sketch

Occulting is the opposite of flashing, where the light is on for longer than it is off. I learned that in a course on boatcraft. I increased the shorter interval to 100ms to make it doubly different:

/*
Occult

Turns on an LED on for one second, then off for one decisecond, repeatedly.

The circuit:
* LED connected from digital pin 13 to ground.

* Note: On most Arduino boards, there is already an LED on the board connected to pin 13, so you don't need any extra components for this example.

*/

int ledPin = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13

// The setup() method runs once, when the sketch starts

void setup(
{
// initialize the digital pin as an output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop() method runs over and over again,
// as long as the Arduino has power

void loop()
{
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // set the LED on
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // set the LED off
delay(100); // wait for a centisecond
}
