Smoothing

This sketch reads repeatedly from an analog input, calculating a running average and printing it to the computer. This example is useful for smoothing out the values from jumpy or erratic sensors, and also demonstrates the use of arrays to store data.

Connect one pin of a potentiometer to 5V, the center pin to analog pin 0, and the the last pin to ground.

Code

The code below sequentially stores 10 readings from your analog sensor into an arrays, one by one. With each new value, the sum of all the numbers is generated and divided, producing an average value which then be used to smooth outlying data. Because this averaging takes place each time a new value is added to the array (rather then waiting for 10 new values, for instance) there is no lag time in calculating this running average.

Altering the size of the array used, by changing numReadings to a larger value will smooth the data collected even further.

  Reads repeatedly from an analog input, calculating a running average
  and printing it to the computer.  Keeps ten readings in an array and 
  continually averages them.
 
  The circuit:
    * Analog sensor (potentiometer will do) attached to analog input 0
