waiting for an interrupt flag to be set

[devnull]

Is there any difference / benefit to using a time.sleep in a tight loop rather than a pass ?

Code: Select all

while x = False:
   pass

while x = False:
   time.sleep_ms(10)

Sorry to jump in, but 65535 as a 2 byte interger viewed as a hex value is 0xFFFF. If you re-interpret this as a signed 2 byte integer value, this is -1. Not sure if this is significant for the return status for the connection, but it may be an error status.

Just my 2 bits (or bytes in this case) ...
