Going further with Blinking Lights

In this one, I am now trying to make lots of lights blink.
In the first example, I just put 6 lights in parallel all on the same pin 13 that was used before.  The code did not change at all.  Just the image changed.

In the next, I then tried playing with the code to get a sort of Night Rider effect with the lights going down a line and back.  I also wanted to speed up the delay between one LED off and the next On.  This helped to smooth out the effect.

//6 LED Blink Sequence - Written by Philip Leete
#define LED1 1   //I used this naming policy just so I could keep track of where the lights were.
#define LED2 2   //Each led is assigned to the corrisponding pin
#define LED3 3
#define LED4 4
#define LED5 5
#define LED6 6

void setup()
{
pinMode(LED1, OUTPUT);   //This is naming each of the led as an output
pinMode(LED2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED3, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED4, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED5, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED6, OUTPUT);
}

void loop()   //This void loop will turn on all LED's and then turn on one at a time as it ripples down the line and back.
{
digitalWrite(LED1, LOW);    //Notice that the first time throught the loop will turn on all LEDs
delay(100);                 //After that, it will sequence each off and back on
digitalWrite(LED1, HIGH);   //And if I did my math correctly, each step should take 1/10th of a second.  There are 10 steps.  Total time - 1 second

digitalWrite(LED2, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED2, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED3, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED3, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED4, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED4, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED5, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED5, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED6, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED6, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED5, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED5, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED4, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED4, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED3, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED3, HIGH);

digitalWrite(LED2, LOW);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(LED2, HIGH);
}


The effect was cool but still not real brilliant.  So I will do more later.  On to other things on this Morning.
