Hello,
As writen in the core_pins.h header file, this is the digitalReadFast() function content:
Apart from some preprocessor directives which slighty reduce the length of code, there are _alot_ of time consuming "else if" instructions.
In my current project, I only need to read two digital pins (2 and 3). I thought of writing a custom "warpRead" or "blazingFastRead" function to eliminate those unuseful steps.
What do I actually need from the function above? By example, if I want to read pin 2, the above function returns:
That's it? I only have to do this registry operation?
