Apr 16, 2021 at 17:35 comment added Siddharth Agrawal I dunno if you evencheck arduino stack exchange now but I am unable to understand the pin diagram. I have push button, with one end having 5V, and the other end having my wire connected to arduino and a 20k Ohm resistor which is connected to ground. Still I am getting random value when the button is not pressed. When it is pressed, I always get 1
Feb 19, 2014 at 23:16 comment added Peter Bloomfield It's worth noting that the same idea works for pull-down resistors too; i.e. the resistor normally pulls the pin low, but pressing the button brings it high. Obviously it has to be external though, as there's no internal pull-down on standard Arduinos.
