Projects Programming JeffHill987 June 11, 2017, 1:32am 1 Hello everybody, I'm new to Arduino, and I have a relatively simple question to ask. It is possible for an else if statement to return and run the original if statement code upon completion? Here is my code: #include <IRremote.h> #include <MotorLibrary.h> MotorLibrary motorLibrary; int RECV_PIN = 2; //define input pin on Arduino IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN); decode_results results; #include <Ultrasonic.h> int PIEZOPin = 9; // Pin used for the PIEZO Speaker int maximumRange = 45; // Maximum range needed int minimumRange = 0; // Minimum range needed Ultrasonic ultrasonic(5, 6); // (Trig PIN,Echo PIN) void setup() { pinMode(PIEZOPin, OUTPUT);// Use Piezo (if required) Serial.begin(9600); irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver motorLibrary.debugMotors(true); } void loop() { long distance = ultrasonic.Ranging(CM); // CM or INC //Serial.print("Object distance (in cm's) = "); if (results.actualKey == "*") { motorLibrary.forward(255); } else if (distance <= maximumRange) { motorLibrary.stopMotors(); } irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value } Basically, I want my tank to detect and object, avoid it, and then continue on. I've tried using while statements and the like to no avail, so I'm back to where I have started. Any help is greatly appreciated jremington June 11, 2017, 1:47am 2 The loop() function loops, very rapidly. All you need to do is, somewhere in the loop function, execute a single if block: if (object_detected) { do_avoid_object(); object_detected = false; //may not be needed } The program will continue on until the end of the loop() function and loop() will be called again, to start over.
