How to get the result from Arduino (which use Processing 3), and put that in .txt?

eina_wnm

Hi, I'm a university student. I'm trying to get my degree with doing my thesis. I'm still trying to understand the Arduino's code and the Processing 3's code.

Right now I'm trying to understand it using the heart pulse code. I want to take the result to a .txt so that I can process the result to get a better result. For example, the heart rate will be around 70-80 for 2 minutes and the result that came out will be "You are resting, the average heart pulse is 66-82bpm".

Please help me... thanks

What have you tried so far? Can you provide you heart pulse code, both for processing and arduino? Your question is that you want to save the data from an arduino device? Or you want to read some data and then output that you are "resting, your bpm is ..." or you want to do those two operations live from an arduino unit?

This is the arduino code

And this is the processing code

Because this is real-time, I want it to show words on new window, like "Your BPM is xx-xx, that is the average human pulse for resting". something like that.. and i'm thinking that if i want to do that, meaning i have to save the result of the heart pulse in a file.
