Arduino LED Temperature Indicator

Above is a simuation.  Click the "Start Simulation" button to begin.  Click on the sensor labled "TMP" to change its value: the LEDs will light themselves according to the sensor's reading. This design is made to keep track of the temperature in a room. You give it the parameters you want and it will light a blue LED if it is too cold, a red LED if it's too hot, and a green one if it's just right. You will need: Arduino board:  https://amzn.to/2DLjxR2 Breadboard:  https://amzn.to/2RYqiSK Jumper wires:  https://amzn.to/2Q7kiKc 3 220Ω resistors (red-red-brown):  https://amzn.to/2S2sV5R 3 LEDs (colors of your choice):  https://amzn.to/2S5PFlM A temperature sensor (mine is an LM35, but most should work):  https://amzn.to/2ORLHuQ Step 1: Make the Circuit Red LED goes to digital pin 4 through one of the resistors, and ground Green LED goes to digital pin 3 though a resistor, and ground Blue LED goes to digital pin 2 t...
