After downloading your circuit, press the button several times to see if you can see a difference between the counter using the debounce state machine and the counter that does not use the debug state machine. What you see will depend on just how "bouncy" your button is. It may bounce almost every time you push it or it may rarely bounce. |

Also, create a histogram on paper and show in your video how often, when it bounces, it bounces just twice, three times, etc. What is the largest number of bounces? What is the average? What is the median? | + | |
