 int LDRPin= A2;   // LDR Reading Pin  
   
 int LDRReading = analogRead(LDRPin);   // Reading analogue value from LDR  
     
 void setup()  
 {  
   Serial.begin(9600);   // Opening serial connection at 9600bps    
  Serial.println("Light");   //Printing Serial Monitor header  
  Serial.println("\n-----------------");  
   
 }  
   
 void loop() {  
   
 Serial.println(LDRReading);   // Printing data to Serial Monitor   
   
 delay(1000);   // Printing data once a second  
 }
