# Serial Write Numbers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Write an array of numbers to the [serial](/device/serial) port.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sig
|
||
|
|
serial.writeNumbers([0, 1, 2]);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Instead of writing a single number at a time using [write number](/reference/serial/write-number), you can write multiple numbers to the serial port at once. They are written as _Comma Separated Values (CSV)_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can write the numbers `0` through `5` together and they will appear as one line of serial output:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``0,1,2,3,4,5``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This makes a line of CSV data where the commas between the numbers are the separators for each value.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Parameters
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `values`: the array of [numbers](/types/number) to write to the serial port
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example: one two three
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This program repeatedly writes a 3-number array to the serial port.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```blocks
|
||
|
|
basic.forever(() => {
|
||
|
|
serial.writeNumbers([1, 2, 3]);
|
||
|
|
basic.pause(5000);
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example: plot temperature and light
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```blocks
|
||
|
|
serial.writeLine("temp,light")
|
||
|
|
basic.forever(() => {
|
||
|
|
serial.writeNumbers([input.temperature(), input.lightLevel()])
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
```
