Because of the delay it is spending more time in the case and very little time outside where the button is being checked. The button might be pressed and released during the delay so it is not checked/saved in memory. If you hold down the button it might show that it works differently (since holding it down will ensure it is checked when the code is outside the switch). If that doesn't help, if you post the entire code then I can take a look at it.

Oooookkkkkkk

It is not mine and it is free to everyone; www.tinkercad.com.

@@isteeleEvCC yea, I found it. Thanks for the response and the video. The “switch” command and how you used it will come in very handy for a project I’m involved with.

Yes he he is also my best teacher. I have almost completed arduino program. If he didn't make these videos. I could not be learn c++ coding.

Really quite difficult to find Classes online on Materials courses

his arduino videos are pure perfection, shame he doesnt have more views.

This is exactly the thing that an Arduino can do. In addition to a motor you will need a motor controller (to allow the motor to rotate forward and backward). If you are new to Arduino, I encourage you to practice all of the basics before trying to accomplish this task (data types, variables, blinking an led, if statements, while/for loops, and hardware/circuit basics). The below code has 2 for loops, the first will repeat the code inside its scope 20 times. The in the scope has another for loop and blinks an led 10 times and then waits 3 seconds before blinking again. This code could be placed inside an if statement that checks to see if a button was pressed. void setup() { pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // setting pin 13 as an output } void loop() { for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) // for loop to run 20 times { for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++) // for loop to blink led 10 times { digitalWrite(13,HIGH); // turn led on delay(1000); // delay for one seconds digitalWrite(13,LOW); // turn led on delay(1000); // delay for one second } delay(3000); // delay for 3 seconds } // since all that is in the loop is this for statement, // it will repeat again forever // these two for loops could be put into a scope // that is activated by a button }

thanks but I mean if you will make practical examples throughout tinker cad
