Display 0 to 9 on Seven Segment Display

To display 0 to 9 on seven segment we need the same connection we made in the previous topic. As we make function one() to display ‘1’ (previous topic) same like that we will make function zero(), one(), two(), three(), four(), five(), six(), seven(), eight() and nine() to display 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. After making these functions we will call all functions by 1 second delay (it is the same as blinking led).

This is just for showing the concept of 7 Segment working, It is highly recommended to use a shift register concept to display on seven segment display.

Note: The steps above are just to show you how 7 Segment Led works. But it is Highly Recommended to use shift register concept to display on seven segment display (start with the data type “byte” if you didn’t read from this).
