Reference variables

Although not immediately useful, the last week definitely contained some very important information. The use of references vs pointer is fairly intuitive in java, though I can see this being a roadblock if I were to, say, teach myself C++. I don't have a lot of commentary on the subject, and I haven't been working on many programs recently, so this blog entry is going to be fairly short.

I have, however, been working more with arduino. I am using an electret microphone to detect sound, though the resistance it provides is not significant enough for the arduino to pick up, so I ordered an LM386 amplifier to amplify the difference.
