OOP with Ringo

[mikasami]

Hi!

I wanted to practice some OOP in Arduino and Ringo is the right motivation for doing so
I'm still getting started,

Here is my code so far:

and you can follow the repository here:

Thanks!

Wanting to understand Ringo a little better, I decided to try to make a simple library for Ringo. it's probably a little bit slower compared to the official one, but I'm just doing this for the sake of learning...

I've implemented a few classes (motors, lightsensors, piezo, sweeper, metronome)

I'm going to implement buttons, and neopixels next..and correct me if I'm wrong... but I didn't see the button debounced? Did you find it uneccessary based on your testing?

I don't really understand the computations of the 6 IMU sensors yet, how you compute the location in the x,y axes and stuff like that based on the readings...Can you point me somewhere so I can understand how the mathematics work? thanks

I almost just copied your implementation of playChirp in my piezo.. without really understanding it too much as well.

Glad to see someone jumping in here for some more advanced stuff. I'm sorry I don't know what "OOP" is though. ??

Most of the code was written by a friend of ours Dustin. It is not documented any further than what is in the code. Good luck. I know he did some tricks with bit shifting to avoid long computations. I also know he did something regarding the gyro where he only calculates for 90 degrees then off sets the value - so the computation can take place in a smaller space then the result is multiplied out for the other three 90 degree slices. (Something to that effect anyway).

I would very much appreciate your help in giving it a second look.
