CSTritt 108:eee3167b25b4 3 File: main.cpp
CSTritt 108:eee3167b25b4 4
CSTritt 109:86a37f0a397f 5 Displays 8-bit binary count on bar graph display. This version uses a while
CSTritt 109:86a37f0a397f 6 loop which provides a much better starting point for an Up/Down counter.

CSTritt 109:86a37f0a397f 8 Error in pow function use corrected in v. 1.0.
CSTritt 108:eee3167b25b4 9
CSTritt 109:86a37f0a397f 10 Note: I tried to use count for the loop counter but this resulted in an
CSTritt 109:86a37f0a397f 11 ambiguous name error.
