# #27. Displaying Sensor Values on LCD
|
||
|
||
Displaying static data on the screen is boring. We have more important things
|
||
to see!
|
||
|
||
Let’s display something useful. For this example, let’s show the time from the
|
||
moment Arduino was started in seconds and the reading from the thermometer we
|
||
learned about earlier.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
The number data type is compatible with the string data type. Sensor values can
|
||
be transmitted without additional conversions. They will be transmitted with an
|
||
accuracy of two decimal places.
|
||
|
||
## Test circuit
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
[↓ Download as a Fritzing project](./circuit.fzz)
|
||
|
||
Now you have a portable thermometer. Try to connect other sensors to reinforce
|
||
the skills.
