## EEPROM Library

The microcontroller on the Arduino AVR based board has EEPROM: memory whose values are kept when the board is turned off (like a tiny hard drive). This library enables you to read and write those bytes. The supported micro-controllers on the various Arduino boards have different amounts of EEPROM: 1024 bytes on the ATmega328, 512 bytes on the ATmega168 and ATmega8, 4 KB (4096 bytes) on the ATmega1280 and ATmega2560. ### Examples EEPROM Clear: Clear the bytes in the EEPROM. EEPROM Read: Read the EEPROM and send its values to the computer. EEPROM Write: Stores values from an analog input to the EEPROM. EEPROM Crc: Calculates the CRC of EEPROM contents as if it was an array. EEPROM Get: Get values from EEPROM and prints as float on serial. EEPROM Iteration: Understand how to go through the EEPROM memory locations. EEPROM Put: Put values in EEPROM using variable semantics. EEPROM Update: Stores values read from A0 into EEPROM, writing the value only if different, to increase EEPROM life. | #### Functions read() write() update() get() put() EEPROM[]
