// Pin 5 is a simulated 50% duty cycle singla with frequency dependent on A0
// A0 is a pot to control the frequency of Pin 5. 31Hz-100Hz,
// (31Hz low because of tone() limit
// Pin 2 is the input signal
// Pin 3 is thr output pulse, a 4ms long one-shot triggered by the input
// and desgined to end at the same time as the input pulse.

State change detection (edge detection)
Often, you don't need to know the state of a digital input all the time, but
you just need to know when the input changes from one state to another.
For example, you want to know when a button goes from OFF to ON. This is called
state change detection, or edge detection.
This example shows how to detect when a button or button changes from off to on
and on to off.
The circuit:
- pushbutton attached to pin 2 from +5V
- 10 kilohm resistor attached to pin 2 from ground
- LED attached from pin 13 to ground through 220 ohm resistor (or use the
built-in LED on most Arduino boards)
