For me, the 24 digit binary bit counter I built is one of the projects I am most proud of because of the concepts that I learned in the process. To be honest, the entire project consists of flashing lights, which are fairly pointless. However, for me, the value was in the programming lessons learned. I was able to wire the connections together very easily due to previous experience, but I had to learn the shiftOut() method for Arduino. I went about this by taking existing code that used 8 LEDs and modified for it to work for 24 LEDs.
