C Program

Include following files using... stdio.h, unistd.h, fcntl.h

#define LOOP 5
int main (void)
{
int i=0,f=0;

// set direction out
f=open("/sys/class/gpio/gpio60/direction",O_RDWR);
write(f,"out",3);
close(f);
f=open("/sys/class/gpio/gpio60/value",O_WRONLY);
// Note - correct i = LOOP, make it i less than or equal to LOOP
for(i=1;i=LOOP;i++)
{
// LED On
write(f,"1",1);
sleep(1);
// LED off;
write(f,"0",1);
sleep(1);
}
close(f);

printf("\nLED Blink Program is terminated !!!");
} // end of main
