-/***
- eeprom_reference example.
-
- This example shows how to use the EEPROM
- reference object EERef, which allows usage
- similar to using a simple char (uint8_t in this case).
-
- Running this sketch is not necessary, this is
- simply highlighting certain programming methods.

-void setup() {

-
- /***
- To create a reference to an EEPROM cell, simply create an EERef variable.
- To let it know which cell you want to reference, you can simply assign the
- address when you create it.
- ***/
-
- EERef ref = 0;
-
- /***
- An equivalent way is by calling the constructor directly:
- EERef ref( 0 );
- ***/
-
- /** Using the reference **/
-
- /***
- Updating cell data.
- To prevent unnecessary wear on the EEPROM cells
- this function will only write the data when it
- is different to what is already stored.
- ***/
-
- ref.update( 44 ); //May write 44 if not present.
- ref.update( 44 ); //This second call will not write anything.
-
- /***
- Assign values directly to the EEPROM cell.
-
- You can use any form of assignment that would otherwise be available
- to a standard uint8_t:
-
- *=
- /=
- +=
- -=
- ^=
- %=
- &=
- |=
- <<=
- >>=
-
- ***/
-
- ref = 4; /***
- Take care to notice, this changes the EEPROM cell data, it does not
- change the index of the cell referenced by 'ref'.
-
- Only the initial declaration like 'EERef ref = 0;' will set the address.
- Using an assignment anywhere else modifies the referenced cell.
- To modify the referenced address after declaring your variable see below.
- ***/
-
- /***
- Changing the referenced object.
- The class has a member named 'index' which is an integer you can modify.
- ***/
-
- ref.index++; //Move reference to the next cell.
-
-
- /***
- Grouping of references.
-
- Using EERef objects you can create a contiguous array referencing
- non-contiguous EEPROM cells.
- ***/
-
- EERef array[] = { 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 };
