Introduction to Interrupts: Arduino Course 9.1

The video tutorial introduces basic programming design, focusing on polling and its sufficiency. It uses a locomotive story to illustrate the need for prioritizing tasks in code execution. The tutorial then explores methods to improve code by using interrupts to prioritize tasks, ensuring critical functions are executed promptly.

What is the main mantra of the programming design discussed in the lesson?

What are the potential complications of using a for loop in programming?

Explain the concept of polling as described in the lesson.

Describe the story of the train and how it relates to programming priorities.

How can the timing of the train's stopping sequence be affected by the order of function execution?

What are the implications of not having a priority system in the code discussed?

What is the significance of the stop train function in the context of the lesson?

How does the lesson suggest improving the response time of the stop train function?

Discuss the trade-offs of using polling versus interrupts in programming.

What is an interrupt, and how does it relate to prioritizing tasks in programming?
