Arduino mood lamp

Built another Arduino prototype of mood lamp controlled by 3 button to change individual light levels of RGB leds, next version will be automatically controlled.

Arduino - code - Happy Birthday Melody with flickering candle

/*  Happy Birthday Melody with flickering Candle
 *  By Chris Hawkins  November 2009
 *  with modified code from the  Melody example
 * (cleft) 2005 D. Cuartielles for K3
 *
 *
 * Taken from (cleft) 2005 D. Cuartielles for K3
 *
 * The calculation of the tones is made following the mathematical
 * operation:
 *
 *       timeHigh = period / 2 = 1 / (2 * toneFrequency)
 *
 * where the different tones are described as in the table:
 *
 * note  frequency  period  timeHigh
 * c 1         261 Hz          3830  1915  
 * d 2         294 Hz          3400  1700  
 * e 3         329 Hz          3038  1519  
 * f 4         349 Hz          2864  1432  
 * g 5         392 Hz          2550  1275  
 * a 6         440 Hz          2272  1136  
 * b 7         493 Hz          2028 1014 
 * C 8         523 Hz         1912  956
