/* keybrd_2_single-layer.ino
This sketch:
is firmware for a simple 1-layer keyboard
runs on two rows and two columns of a breadboard keyboard
This layout table shows how keys are arranged on the keyboard:
| Layout | **0** | **1** |
|:------:|-------|-------|
| **0** | 1 | 2 |
| **1** | a | b |
The layout's row and column numbers are in the headers.
Each cell in the table's body represents a key.
The following sketch is annotated with a walk-through narrative enclosed in comment blocks.
Each comment block explains one or two lines of code after the comnent.
keybrd objects are instantiated under the "GLOBAL" heading.
The keyboard runs at the end of the sketch, under the "MAIN" heading.

/* ================= INCLUDES ==================
All the includes in this sketch are to keybrd library classes.
*/
#include <Code_Sc.h>
#include <Row.h>
#include <Scanner_uC.h>
#include <ScanDelay.h>
/* ============ SPEED CONFIGURATION ============
Keyboard switches are made of moving contacts.
When the contacts close, they bounce apart one or more times before making steady contact.
ScanDelay gives the switches time to debounce.
ScanDelay specifies microsecond between matrix scans.
*/
ScanDelay scanDelay(9000);
/* ================== SCANNER ==================
Microcontroller pins 14 and 15 are connected to the matrix columns.
sizeof() is used to compute the number of array elements.
This eliminates the risk of a programmer forgetting to update a count
after adding or removing an element from the array.

Scanner_uC constructor parameters are: activeState, readPins[], readPinCount.
activeState defines the logic level for strobes, HIGH or LOW.
"Active low" means that if a switch is pressed (active), the read pin is low.
The scanner uses readPins and readPinCount to read the colums.
*/
Scanner_uC scanner(LOW, readPins, readPinCount);
/* HOW SCANNER OBJECTS WORK
The Scanner object strobes a row.
If a key is pressed, the LOW strobe pulls that readPin LOW.
Then the scanner reads its readPins.

/* =================== CODES ===================
Four Codes are instantiated, one for each key in the layout.
The Code object names in this sketch start with a "s_" prefix.
The Code_Sc constructor takes one scancode ("Sc" means "scancode").
When Code_Sc is pressed, it sends the scancode.

/* =================== ROWS ====================
Here we pack Code objects into Row objects.
The Row objects names in this sketch start with a "row_" followed by a row number.
Row constructor parameters are: scanner, strobePin, ptrsKeys[], keyCount.
strobePin is the Arduino pin number connected to the row.
ptrsKeys[] contains all the Code objects of the row, one Code object per key.

loop() continually scans the matrix, one row at a time.
