+
+attachInterrupt()
+=================
+
+Used to specify a function to call when an external interrupt (like an
+GPIO changing from LOW to HIGH, a button getting pressed, etc.)
+occurs.

+
+Discussion
+----------
+
+Because the function will run in interrupt context, inside of it,
+:ref:`lang-delay` won't work, and the value returned by
+:ref:`lang-millis` will not increment. Serial data received while
+in the function may be lost. You should declare as ``volatile`` any
+global variables that you modify within the attached function.
+
+There are a few constraints you should be aware of if you're using
+more than one interrupt at a time; the :ref:`external-interrupts` page
+has the details.
+
+
+Using Interrupts
+----------------
+
+Interrupts are useful for making things happen automatically in
+microcontroller programs, and can help solve timing problems. A
+good task for using an interrupt might be reading a rotary encoder,
+or monitoring user input.
+
+
+If you wanted to insure that a program always caught the pulses
+from a rotary encoder, never missing a pulse, it would make it very
+tricky to write a program to do anything else, because the program
+would need to constantly poll the sensor lines for the encoder, in
+order to catch pulses when they occurred. Other sensors have a
+similar interface dynamic too, such as trying to read a sound
+sensor that is trying to catch a click, or an infrared slot sensor
+(photo-interrupter) trying to catch a coin drop. In all of these
+situations, using an interrupt can free the microcontroller to get
+some other work done while not missing the doorbell.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+    int maple_led_pin = 13;
+    volatile int state = LOW; // must declare volatile, since it's
+                              // modified within the blink handler
+
+    void setup() {
+      pinMode(maple_led_pin, OUTPUT);
+      attachInterrupt(0, blink, CHANGE);
+    }
+
+    void loop() {
+      digitalWrite(maple_led_pin, state);
+    }
+
+    void blink() {
+      state = !state;
+    }
+
+
+Arduino Compatibility
+---------------------
+
+Most Arduino boards have two external interrupts: numbers 0 (on
+digital pin 2) and 1 (on digital pin 3). The Arduino Mega has an
+additional four: numbers 2 (pin 21), 3 (pin 20), 4 (pin 19), and 5
+(pin 18).  On the Maple, you don't have to remember which interrupt
+number goes with which pin -- just tell ``attachInterrupt()`` the pin
+you want.
