We learn how a how to turn ON a Light Emmiting Diode, LED using a push button switch. The LED will turn on when you push the switch. When you release the push button switch, the LED will stay ON for the time set in variable delayLED. This value is in milliseconds. It is set to 3000ms which is 3 seconds.

* Arduino Step by Step Course by Robojax
* Lesson 09-b. LED with Push button
* This code is turning on an LED when a push button is pressed. When the push button is relased, the LED will turn OFF after delayLED time
* set in the code.

* What pars we need:
* -Of course Arduino board (UNO , Nano, Mega or any)
* -Push button switch
* -LED eitehr 5mm or 3mm
* -200ohm to 1000 ohrm resistor for LED
* -Some dupont wires to connec
* -If don't want to solder, then use breadboard
