Lesson 58 : What is multidimensional Array? Example of RGB LED

Please select other codes for this lecture from the links below.

Part 6: Arduino Practial Programming

In this lesson we learn about multidimensional array. Regular array is single dimension which is list of values in one variable. But when you have related values like lenght and width of objects, then we can define two dimensional array to hold lenght and width for the same object in the same index. This allows to have dimensions for example of items in a multidimensional array.
If we want for example to meausre voltage and current at different intervals of time we can use a two dimensional array. or we can use a three dimensional array two assign values of color red, green and blue for RGB LED. In the next lession we practially use it with RGB LED. Please watch the video for full details.
