buzzer.playNotes
Plays an array of notes one after the other.
buzzer.playNotes() is a method of the buzzer that plays an array of notes one after the other at a given tempo. All of the notes are played as a whole note; if you want to change how long a particular note is played for, you can use the buzzer.playSong() method.
This method accepts two parameters: a one-dimensional array full of notes, and a tempo to play them at. Tempo is an optional parameter, but if left undefined defaults to 120bpm.
