Most of us try to avoid the string class for the arduino uno. The second type of string used in arduino programming is the string object. Introduction there are times when a string is recieved, but rather than the entire string, just a piece of the string is desired. The single character that was sent to the motor arduino then told which direction to move the robot in. The problem is actually that, by default, all the arduino print and string conversion functions are set to 2 decimal places. Arduino library for displaying double height characters on an lcd display.
