This code iterates through numbers from 0 to 255 and performs certain operations when the current number (i
) is divisible by 30 (i.e., i % 30 == 0
). Here's a detailed breakdown of what the code does:
Code Analysis:
-
for(int i=0; i<=255; i++)
:- A loop runs from
i = 0
toi = 255
(inclusive), incrementingi
by 1 on each iteration.
- A loop runs from
-
if(i % 30 == 0)
:- Inside the loop, the code checks if
i
is divisible by 30 (i.e., the remainder from dividingi
by 30 is 0). If true, the code inside theif
block executes.
- Inside the loop, the code checks if
-
fill_rainbow(leds, NUM_LEDS, i, 255 / NUM_LEDS);
:- This function (likely provided by the FastLED library) fills the
leds
array (representing LED colors) with a "rainbow" gradient.leds
: An array representing the LED strip.NUM_LEDS
: Represents the number of LEDs in the array.i
: The starting color index for the rainbow.255 / NUM_LEDS
: The delta or step between the colors of the rainbow for each LED.
- This function (likely provided by the FastLED library) fills the
-
FastLED.show();
:- This call updates the physical LEDs to show the colors stored in the
leds
array.
- This call updates the physical LEDs to show the colors stored in the
-
delay(10000);
:- The code pauses execution for 10,000 milliseconds (10 seconds) before continuing to the next iteration or operation.
Overall Functionality:
The code generates a rainbow gradient across a strip of LEDs and iteratively shifts/updates the starting color of the rainbow every 30th value of i
. The LEDs are updated on the strip (via FastLED.show()
), and the code waits 10 seconds before continuing the loop. This effectively creates a slowly shifting rainbow effect on the LED strip, with updates happening every 10 seconds when i
is divisible by 30.
Note: This code assumes the FastLED library is being used for LED control. The behavior also depends on correctly defined leds
and NUM_LEDS
variables elsewhere in the program.
