  My Project
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The project that I recently worked on is a reaction time test made by using an Arduino. It works like so:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Press the start button to begin.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Now a randomly generated number will appear on the screen; the task is to press the corresponding button as quickly as possible, as it will be timed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This will be repeated 10 times and in the end, the user will see their average and total reaction time.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;P.S. If you press the right button you will hear a snippet of the GTA San Andreas theme song, but if you press the wrong one you will hear a part of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5. In the end, if you pressed all 10 buttons correctly you will hear a longer version of the soundtrack and thus be praised as the winner!&lt;/p&gt;

      &lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/h2&gt;
    &lt;h3&gt;
      A reaction time test game made with an Arduino
    &lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div class="ltag-github-body"&gt;
    
&lt;div id="readme" class="md"&gt;
&lt;div class="markdown-heading"&gt;
&lt;h1 class="heading-element"&gt;ReactionTime&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A reaction time test made with an Arduino.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Modules: Circuit board, speaker, LCD display, microcontroller&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
  &lt;div class="gh-btn-container"&gt;&lt;a class="gh-btn" href="https://github.com/dragmakex/ReactionTime" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;View on GitHub&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br&gt;


&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  How I built it
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I used the Arduino starter kit provided by our school. The modules that I used were the circuit board, speaker, an LCD and of course the Arduino microcontroller.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Conclusion
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have never worked with electronics before, so I had lots of fun connecting all the modules and trying out different things! I will definitely buy more parts in the future to work on bigger projects.&lt;/p&gt;
