Running the serialexample Program

The value of result depends upon whether your system's COM1 port is cabled to an oscilloscope. If you have run the example with an oscilloscope, you see the result of reading the serial port.

• result =
  45
  

If you run the example without an oscilloscope attached, there is no data to read. In that case, you see an empty character array.

• result =
  ''
