Description

@matthijskooijman

The tutorial at https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/RowColumnScanning omits resistors in driving the LEDs. There is a common misconception in the Arduino scene, that I/O pins are somehow (safely) current limited and need no resistors with LEDs, but this is not actually the case. It would be good if at least official Arduino documentation set the right example...
