Hello, I have built the attached schematic and I have the attached code.
I have 2 questions:
1. How to correctly write the loop() function ?
2. And how to correctly write the zero() function ?


C:
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <max6675.h>

#define thermoDO 12
#define thermoCS 10
#define thermoCLK 13
#define potentiometer A0
#define zerocrossing 2
#define triac 7
#define relay A1

volatile float temperature, realTemperature;  // I have declared those 2 variables as VOLATILE, because of using them inside and outside ISR
int pottemperature;
int counter;
int duty = 0; // variable for duty cycle

byte thermometer[8] = //icon for termometer
{
  B00100,
  B01010,
  B01010,
  B01110,
  B01110,
  B11111,
  B11111,
  B01110
};

byte arrow[8] = //icon for arrow
{
  B11000,
  B01100,
  B00110,
  B00011,
  B00011,
  B00110,
  B01100,
  B11000
};

MAX6675 thermocouple(thermoCLK, thermoCS, thermoDO);

/*  The circuit:
   LCD RS pin to digital pin 12
   LCD Enable pin to digital pin 11
   LCD D4 pin to digital pin 5
   LCD D5 pin to digital pin 4
   LCD D6 pin to digital pin 3
   LCD D7 pin to digital pin 2
   LCD R/W pin to ground
   LCD VSS pin to ground
   LCD VCC pin to 5V
   10K resistor:
   ends to +5V and ground
   wiper to LCD VO pin (pin 3)
