I am using the Arduino Uno and am trying to control a stepper motor. I’m getting the error(“break statement not within loop or switch ) when I try and compile the following code: I want to break out of the loop if the first “if statement is true” Any suggestions??<\/p>\n
void loop()
\n{<\/p>\n
\/\/Stepper motor will turn 90 degrees counterclockwise, VALVE WILL OPEN<\/p>\n
if (ValveStatus==1) {
\nbreak; }
\nelse if ((duration\/74\/2)<5) {<\/p>\n
Serial.println (“OPEN VALVE”);
\nmyStepper.step( -stepsPerRevolution);
\ndelay(500);
\nValveStatus++;
\n}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":4},"question-category":[55],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-1391","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-programming"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/1391","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1391"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1391"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=1391"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=1391"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
