waitkey function for bs2?

dr_eggman198

I was wondering if there is some type of pbasic command that woulld be similar to a waitkey function, where the basic stamp wpuld have to wait until a signal was sent to a pin in order to proceed with the next line of code.

look at PULSIN and/or DEBUGIN in the help files.

Take a look at the "ON" instruction in the Editor Help file - will that do what you want?

i'm making a tic tac toe circuit, and the stamp outputs at a certain pin that corresponds to a led based on what the human has input. for example, if pin 7 and pin 9 are on, and the human inputs 8, then the stamp will output pin 5. But if the human doesn't input at pin 8, then the stamp will output at a different pin. The problem is that I think the stamp will assume that the human didn't input at pin 8, because of the bs2's speed over the human's,

You could use a DO...LOOP, for example:

DO : LOOP UNTIL IN0 = 0

This piece of code will sit in that loop until the active LOW (Pulled HIGH) button on P0 is pressed.

Okay, your new post kind of negates the previous one I posted.· That's a whole different concept.

ok, that seems like it will work. Thanks.
