   Set the pins of white LED module and the photoresistor; Initialize the serial monitor.

   

2. Main Code

   Loop:

   ① Print the value read by the photoresistor.

   ② Determine whether the photoresistor value is less than 1000 every 0.1s.

   • value < 1000 (weak light): LED lights up.

   • value ≥ 1000 (adequate light): LED goes off.
