C7: Arduino Basics & I/O with Tinkercad Circuits
  1. What is conditional (if-then) logic?
    It’s a rule that says: “If something is true, then do something.” For example, “If temperature > 30°C, then turn ON the fan.”

  2. How do machines make decisions?
    Machines use sensors to collect data and then run if-then logic to decide what action to take.

  3. How does Arduino use if-then in code?
    Arduino checks sensor values continuously, and if a condition is met (like high temperature), it performs an action like turning on an LED or fan.
