2022-01-11 (Tu) EWC_Panel Recognizing inputs

I wasn't sure I connected my button array correctly, so I grabbed one of the spare and confirmed its operation with a multimeter. After some experimenting, I figured out that I had to declare half of the pins as OUTPUT before grounding them, then I could look for a ground signal on the other four pins, which had to be declared INPUT_PULLUP. The next issue was that I used pin 13 for one of the wires, which had an LED installed, so I moved the wire to another input. My function reports a two-digit number where the first digit is the row (1-4), and the second digit is the column (1-4). I tried to record the numbers as an array to track rising and falling edges, but I opted to look at the integer and react when a new input arrived. For now, all the sketch does is report the button name.
