ezBuzzer Library - Melody Repeat Example
This example uses a piezo buzzer:
- Plays a melody once on background each time a button is pressed
- Stops playing a melody when another button is pressed
- Without using delay() function, this is a non-blocking example

※ NOTE THAT:
The above example code demonstrates how to use the ezBuzzer library to make a beep on Piezo Buzzer each time button is pressed. In practice, You may need to debounce for the button. Debouncing for the button is not easy for beginners. Fortunately, thanks to the ezButton library, We can do it easily.
