For this project I worked on making a circuit that will turn on an LED when a button is pressed. After setting up the circuit, as shown in the starting diagram, I went into the code and started cleaning it up. Primarily by making comment blocks are indented together, as can be seen within the definitions. Then I put in some comments that stated what every definition was to accomplish, and I deleted the comment telling us that we are entering the main function for it is not needed.
