[Arduino Project -- 5] -- Using Keypad and LCD Screen at Once to make simple Calculator

Good day. This is my fifth times of my post about Arduino. We've learned about how to create something using Arduino from the very beginning that was just make a simple push button, till we made something more difficult which was creating a temperature censor and displaying the result in the LCD screen. And now, i'm gonna show you how to use a keypad and LCD Screen at once. With these two devices are combined with our Arduino, we are able to make something like a little application. And now, i'm gonna make a simple calculator using them. Stuffs: These are stuffs you are gonna need to prepare An Arduino Uno A BreadBoard Jumper Cables A Keypad A PC which has Arduino App Installed A Potensiometer A Resistor What do we do? First thing we gotta do is to wire our Arduino and keypad as shown below: Actually we dont need the speaker and the led. But I put them when i wired them. And here is my work: It was a little bit confusing i thought. And aft

[Arduino project - 4] -- Calibrated Temperature Censor Displayed in LCD

Good Day all, I didn't realize today is today, haha, because today is the time to do something awesome again with Arduino. In the last talk, we made a temperature censor using Arduino which was displayed in our PC screen, it was pretty simple to do and i hope you could follow my instructions clearly because it was just to plug the censor into some pins, wrote some lines of simple code which you can copy and paste from my post, and did some clicks to show it in the monitor. And now, since we have an LCD screen, we want our temperature to be displayed in it, not in our PC screen. What do we do now? here it is. You're gonna need these stuffs (you can click on each stuff to see their pic. as I don't want to put their pics): Arduino Uno R3 A temperature censor (LM35) Some (or maybe a lot of) jumper cables A bread board A potentiometer and of course, An LCD screen . Then, if they've been prepared, we're gonna need to connect our Arduino with LCD like
