I forgot the old name "thunderdistancemeter" of some places in the code, but it's no problem and is too late, can't be changed, tried.
This application is based on the method "Flash to bang" from where is, the name.
This method calculates the distance from you to the lightning ,based on time between lightning and the sound on current lightning.
The time is based on speed of sound in air, but it depends a lot from air temperature. The temperature range for selection in the application is between [1;46] Celsius or [33;121] Fahrenheit.
The distance to the lightning is calculated in three measurement units for length: Meters, Feets and Yards.
Instruction for using:
- This application is for Android 3.0 or higher!
- For proper calculation of distance you must to:
-- First: Select the air temperature from drop down menu top right!
-- Second: Press the button "Press at: Flash/Lightning" as soon as you see the flash(lightning)!
-- Third: Press the button "Press at: Bang/Thunder"as soon as you hear the sound of thunder from relevant lightning!
Congratulation you have the distance in the list, which is empty by default.
Бenefits and issues:
- After pressing the button "Press at: Flash/Lightning" (vibrate 75 milliseconds) the screen is kept always on to pressing of button "Press at: Flash/Lightning" (vibrate 150 milliseconds).
- If you forget to press the button "Press at: Bang/Thunder" after "Press at: Flash/Lightning" you will reach to the end of the timer it's 2 minutes and 59 seconds and the time will be stopped appears message "Reached END of the timer 2 min. and 59 sec.!!!" and will vibrate for 300 milliseconds, reset timer to zero and screen to normal mode, not always ON.
- The chosen temperature is kept even after the closing of the application.
- Don't forget when the temperature is different you must to change it manually.
- The selected temperature disappears only when you reinstall the app. or using "Clear data" of the application.
- Can't select different temperature while timer is in progress!
- The distance is saved only after pressing the button "Press at: Bang/Thunder" even after the closing of the application.
- The only one way to close it is like slide it from the all processes of the device, no button EXIT.
- You can delete the results with the distances, one by one from the list by click over it or when you reinstall the app. or from "Clear data" of the application.
- The thing you able to doing with the resulting items (distances) is delete and/or update, mean update of the texts or delete the whole item from list.
- The sequence number is by default you can't delete it or change it. it's start from zero when install the application and is kept always, with exception when you reinstall or "Clear data" of the application.
Thanks in advance for any feedback with issues and/or advices.
