+  Interrupt
+  Use a pushbutton to control an LED; powered by interrupts.
+
+  This sample uses an interrupt service routine (ISR) named `blink` to toggle
+  a global state variable and then uses the built-in LED to display the value
+  of the cached state to the user. The work of updating the cached state happens
+  asychronously in the interrupt service routine.
+
+  This sample can easily be modified from behaving as a button into behaving as
+  a switch, by changing the interrupt mode from CHANGE to LOW. Futhermore, this
+  example can be modified to update the built-in LED from inside in the ISR,
+  which would allow the loop function to be empty yet still allow actions and
+  reactions to occur.
+
+  This example code is in the public domain (adapted from
+  https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/attachInterrupt).
