Hi, After getting Arduino Uno I have started to use their sketches that are C++ code. Just learning the structure at the moment. Anyone else got one?

Yes I have one, also a raspberry pi b+ & raspberry pi2 + udoo.

You can get some good ebooks from here to help you:

Thanks for that. It's been a long time that I have dabbled with C. I got the Arduino for something to do in my retirement to keep my brain cells active. :-)

I made a cool light with mine using programmable led strips. Got a frosted looking tube and put the strips in it and used the arduino to to control the leds. Then gave it to my brother as a present, he loves it.

Here's a good video guide,

That was impressive. Is that your web site? What I now need is some time to dabble as her in doors is finding things for me to do.

No that's a link I found - there's plenty things on indestructibles webiste - you should try the 'led cube' or 'propeller clock arduino' projects - that are cool.

Thanks will have a look.
