Documented Code

Arduino Mega 2560 Code (sketch.ino)

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

This code is a template and does not contain any functional implementation. It provides the basic structure for an Arduino sketch with setup() and loop() functions, where initialization code is placed in setup(), and the main code that runs repeatedly is placed in loop(). The user is expected to fill in these functions with the specific logic required to operate the circuit as intended.
