Arrays in MicroPython

Store the value of switch presses and their delay intervals in a variable and try blinking the onboard red LED after 10 second delay according to the switch presses.

I need to record the value of USR switch of Py board in an array which will run for 10 Seconds and after that read the array which contains the values of USR switch . According to the elements that are stored in array my LED needs to get lighted up.

One important thing is how quickly you want to sample the switch (i.e. how many times per second do you update the array). This will affect how accurately you can measure the timing.

But something like (untested):

Code: Select all

import pyb, time

def measure():
  samples = []
  sw = pyb.Switch()
  for i in range(100):
    samples.append(sw.value())
    time.sleep_ms(100)
  return samples
  
print(measure())
[code]

That will give you a list of 100 True/False values (10 per second).
