avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51 Error on Arduino IDE

If you are receiving the following error from Arduino :

avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51

Double check if you have the right Arduino board selected. The most common cause of this error (IMO) used to be people choosing the Duemilanove 128 when they had the newer Duemilanove 328.  Click on Tools - Board and make sure you have the right board chosen, and try again.

Processing and Arrow keys

Although in the Processing API it is mentioned that key returns the value of the pressed key, but when it comes to arrows it just returns question mark !!! The magic is to use keyCode :-)

void keyPressed(){
  //print(keyCode);
  if (keyCode == RIGHT){
    //GO RIGHT
  }
  else if (keyCode == LEFT){
    //GO LEFT
  }

  else if (keyCode == UP){

    //GO UP

  }

  else if (keyCode == DOWN){

    //GO DOWN

  }

}//end of keyPressed
