Arduino Extended Database Library using

an SD Card
The Arduino Playground Site of the Extended Database Library states that : With these changes,
it is now ossible to use this library in con!unction with the standard Arduino EEP"#$ library,
an external EEP"#$ such as the AT%&'()%&, ro*iding (%+ , -(% .ilobytes of non/*olatile
storage, or any other latfor0 that suorts byte le*el reading and writing such as an SD card12
3ut unfortunately 4 didn5t find any exa0le in the internet that shows how to use the library with
an SD 'ard1 4n the following is 0y *ersion of the sulied ED36Si0le using an SD 'ard
instead of the build/in EEP"#$1 7or learning how to connect an SD 'ard Writer8"eader to an
Arduino there are a lot of exa0les around1 $y Exa0le is for an Arduino 9:# with a chea
SD 0odule hardwired to P4: () ;Those 0odules do not wor. on the newer Arduinos<1 40ortant
are the reader and writer functions and that you ha*e to create a file and use the see.;< 0ethod1
