Hello, I have a problem with the code for this QUANTIZER project (with 8 scales), it seems simple but there is an error in the code.
error : “RBD_Timer.h> no such file or directory”
I asked the guy and he replied that: "
“you need to install that library. From the menu: Sketch -> Import Library -> Add Library. All the libraries you’ll need for any particular sketch will be the first thing in the code. Good luck, it has been a WHILE since I built my ribbon controller! I remember it being complicated.”
but it isn’t help me … i thought code alone would be enough
is anyone can explain to me somethings ? thanks !
Hi, a lot of arduino code (and computer programs in general) relies on libraries, that means functions and more that can be reused. In this way, not everyone needs to repeat all the coding again from the start and write code for – let’s say a timer – each time. Each program lists the libraries it needs at the beginning, in this case it is the first line of the code
#include <RBD_Timer.h>
Some libraries are already included with the arduino IDE (the arduino coding environment, aka the program you run on your computer), but some you need to install yourself afterwards. Luckily they made it very easy. As “the guy” described: click on the Tools menu in the top bar and select Manage Libraries…
Then use the searchbox and enter rbd timer. There is only one result for that and you need to install it. That’s all!
