- Hussam commented on paulhschulman's forum topic Why identify int thisPin each time in 'for loop'?View Topic »
You can always declare it as a global variable outside of setup and loop functions. However, then you won't be able to use it anywhere else for some other purpose. That is why variables are usually declared locally within the scope of a for loop.

No problem with the Mega. Infact it is better but you wouldn't have required it for this course as it's mostly basic stuff. Just select Tools->Board->Arduino Mega 2560 and you'll be good to use it. I hope you can modify the code and circuits according to pins provided on the board.

Arduino Mega is just a beefier version of UNO which has more Inputs/Outputs. You can use it by selecting from Tools->Board->Arduino Mega

We face alot of problem in Pakistan as Paypal is not active here and if you don't have credit card you can't do online shopping so people face alot of problems. I hope companies like Adafruit,Sparkfun,Amazon etc take notice of this situation as there are many hobbyists and tinkerers in Pakistan.

It'd depend on the number of sensors and actuators you have in the system. Might want to upgrade to a board like Arduino Mega

Yes it's quite easy. You can use readings from an analog temperature sensor like DHT11 and then translate it into a PWM signal to drive RGB LED or you can use separate LEDs as well. The world is wide open!

In a real application, someone would pass by and your bulb won't light up because the response is slow

It's based on Ohm's law I = V/R since you have added a resistor of 470 ohm with 9V battery and considering LEDs' resistance negligible the current comes out to be 19.14 mA or nearly 20 mA.
