Wire a Button on a Breadboard

Connect a push button cleanly with a pull-up.

Time to Build It

You've written the code; now make it real. You'll wire a push button on a breadboard so the Arduino can actually feel your press.

Meet the Push Button

A tactile push button has four legs, but they're really just two pairs. Pressing it connects one pair to the other inside.
