!! How do I debounce a switch?
This is a [recipe] for how to debounce an analog ([hardware]) [switch].
* __Author:__ [Murray]
!! Description
When you flip a [switch|Switches] you change the __state__ of something, either from
Vcc (positive voltage, logic ''one'') to ground (zero voltage, logic ''zero''), or
from ground (zero voltage, logic ''zero'') to Vcc (positive voltage, logic ''one'').
Sometimes this is used to turn on or off the power (like turn on or off the lights
in a room), sometimes the state of the switch is sensed by a circuit and used to
alter the state in a software program. A switch might be used on the bumper of a
robot to tell if the robot has hit an obstacle.
