creating multiple .csv files with differnt names (arduino+processing+ultrasonic sensor)

in General Discussion • Other • 1 year ago

hi guys,

I am a new to processing and i am stuck at a point in my program. I am reading values from a ultrasonic sensor using arduino and ploting a graph in processing. Later on i am storing this data into a csv file but now when i run the program again i want a new csv with a different name to be created. What is happening at the moment is that the new readings get overwritten in the previous file. I have no clue how to do it. Please help!!

Kind Regards

Anubhav

Search the forum for timestamp. When the name of the file contains a timestamp it's unique.

For example: https://forum.processing.org/topic/how-to-write-a-timestamp

Or check the reference Time & Date section for useful functions to create one:

year()
month()
day()
hour()
minute()
