spiral_rgb_lamp's Issues

Add comments to TwinkleTails

Add a function header and inline comments for the function TwinkleTails.

Add DrawTwinkleTails()

Affected file: twinkle.h

Implementation: Loop through the leds up to NUM_LEDS - 2 and copy led[i] to led[i+1].

Setting to try: bump max_brightness to 255 and fadeAmt to 64.

Fireflies animation

Create a new animation that is reminiscent of fireflies.

Choose a random position within the strip.
Choose a random color from a table.
Create an object with the following properties:
- Color
- Age
Insert the new pixel into an array at it's position.
Draw the pixel at the position and increment it's age.
For each subsequent frame draw a new pixel ahead of the original pixel until max_age is reached.
Fade all pixels each frame.
