Debounce
Each time the input pin goes from LOW to HIGH (e.g. because of a push-button
press), the output pin is toggled from LOW to HIGH or HIGH to LOW. There's a
minimum delay between toggles to debounce the circuit (i.e. to ignore noise).
The circuit:
- LED attached from pin 13 to ground through 220 ohm resistor
- pushbutton attached from pin 2 to +5V
- 10 kilohm resistor attached from pin 2 to ground
- Note: On most Arduino boards, there is already an LED on the board connected
to pin 13, so you don't need any extra components for this example.

// constants won't change. They're used here to set pin numbers:

// Variables will change:

// the following variables are unsigned longs because the time, measured in
// milliseconds, will quickly become a bigger number than can be stored in an int.

int reading = digitalRead(buttonPin);
// check to see if you just pressed the button
// (i.e. the input went from LOW to HIGH), and you've waited long enough
// since the last press to ignore any noise:
// If the switch changed, due to noise or pressing:
if (reading != lastButtonState) {
// reset the debouncing timer

}
if ((millis() - lastDebounceTime) > debounceDelay) {

if (reading != buttonState) {
buttonState = reading;

if (buttonState == HIGH) {
ledState = !ledState;
}

// set the LED:
digitalWrite(ledPin, ledState);
// save the reading. Next time through the loop, it'll be the lastButtonState:
