/* Knock Sensor
  
   This sketch reads a piezo element to detect a knocking sound. 
   It reads an analog pin and compares the result to a set threshold. 
   If the result is greater than the threshold, it writes
   "knock" to the serial port, and toggles the LED on pin 13.
  
   The circuit:
	* + connection of the piezo attached to analog in 0
	* - connection of the piezo attached to ground
	* 1-megohm resistor attached from analog in 0 to ground

const int knockSensor = A0; // the piezo is connected to analog pin 0
const int threshold = 100;  // threshold value to decide when the detected sound is a knock or not


// these variables will change:

int ledState = LOW;         // variable used to store the last LED status, to toggle the light

void setup() {
 pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // declare the ledPin as as OUTPUT

}

void loop() {
  // read the sensor and store it in the variable sensorReading:
  sensorReading = analogRead(knockSensor);    
  
  // if the sensor reading is greater than the threshold:
  if (sensorReading >= threshold) {
    // toggle the status of the ledPin:
    ledState = !ledState;
