hey guys, I am currently having problems trying to use Processing to tell arduino when to turn solenoids on and off. I am new to this so been struggling to find some help. I created a float array which contains data and I want to use this data to somehow control the speed of 3 solenoids.
Hello!
states:
The delay() function should only be used for pausing scripts (i.e. a script that needs to pause a few seconds before attempting a download, or a sketch that needs to wait a few milliseconds before reading from the serial port.
I will not look at pictures of code.
Please try to post some minimal code to reflect where you have questions or need help.
This is an Arduino reference:

You can do similar for Processing; a search will come up with many hits on this subject.

Hey there Rebekah, welcome to the forum.
It’s possible to post code as text, so we can easily copy-paste it and play around with it. Click the < /> Preformattted text button in your post and paste your code in there 
// the outcome should look something like this
float[] recycling = {43.1, 18.7, 32.1}
int value;
void setup() {
// your code
}
void draw() {
// your code
}
