// LIBRARIES
 
//used for communicating with I2C devices
#include <Wire.h> 
 
//https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/libraries/liquidcrystal-i2c/
// Install the LiquidCrystal I2C by Frank de Brabander from the IDE library manager. 
#include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h>
 
// PIN DEFINITIONS
// define the pin to which the sound sensor is connected
// for Arduino Nano ,  comment if using ESP32
#define soundSensorPin A0
// for ESP32 , uncomment if using ESP32
// #define soundSensorPin 13
 
// GLOBAL VARIABLES
// Define the display size

// used for reading sensor value

/* INITIALIZE OBJECTS
 * Libraries usually follow an object-oriented approach that requires
 * an instance of the class to call its methods.
 */
/* 
 * All I2C components have an address, the default is usually 0x27
 * If that doesn't work, see this:https://playground.arduino.cc/Main/I2cScanner/
 * The init statement accepts the address and the number of columns and rows.
