Conclusion:
There are many things in this activity that I am familiar with based on what I have learnt
from the last semester like the concept of the 7 segments which what we had used from our
subject for logic, although in this case it uses an arduino for a specific letter to light up in
which case it was coded to do so. The functions important here is the int command that gives
part on each line of the seven segment it was connected into different specific wires to the
arduino. The pinMode that indicates which is the pin in the 7 segment LED part, the
digitalwrite on which line would light or not of course the HIGH being ON and the LOW being
OFF then the delays that would stop the light for a few matters of seconds.

The 7 segments consists of 7 LED’s called segments and it was arrange in the form of
NUMBER 8, most of the 7 segment displays has 8 segments then there is a dot on the right
that would act as a decimal point, each number of the display has its own corresponding
letters, they go in a clockwise direction. Each of the letter has its own corresponding pins, for
example is that the C goes in pin number 4, the code would be first to align each segment for
its number, then the setup for initializing the digital pins as output, inside the void loop the
activity is said to be from capital letters A-J but it can modified to many letters than that.
Remember that each number on line has its own corresponding pin, if we trigger this pin the
Led would light up on its pin. For example, the Letter A that only has the segment D is off so
it would be turned to LOW in the code so that the segment would light as an Letter A, that is
basically the concept of this activity and what I have learnt from modifying the code.
