3.1.4 Branch Functions

As a gropu, we learned the difference between digital and analog functions. Digital is when the action is to turn off/off and analog is when there is a scale of a different values applied. We also learned that branch functions offer the program to make a decision because every branch function is a yes/no question. Programming two switches to have different jobs under the same function was something else we learned. With help from Mr. Olsen, we were able to learn how to use the potentiometer, which led us to be able to dim a light, because the potentiometer behaves as an analog device. It's important because there can be different outcomes for the same input.

This is our branch function with multiple decisions based on the value of the potentiometer, which let us dim the light.



This is our potentiometer.
