MSP430G2231 Serial out using Energia

Question

I am trying to read an analog signal using the Analog.Read() function and output 1 or 0 depending on the value of the analog signal. While testing using a serial monitor, I always get the symbol for 'phi'instead of 0 and the 'square box with question mark'instead of 1. Please help.

    const int analogInPin = A3;
    int inputValue=0;
    int ch1=1,ch2=0;
    void setup()
   {

     pinMode(A0, INPUT);
     Serial.begin(9600);
    }

    void loop()
    {
      inputValue = analogRead(analogInPin);
      if(inputValue>240)
      Serial.print('1');
      else 
      Serial.print('0');
      delay(10);   
    }

Answer 1

If I remember well you can use either:

Serial.print(1);

or

Serial.write('1');

To display 1 in the serial monitor.

Answer 2

If you're trying to output 1 or 0 simply remove your single quotes and use the following:

Serial.print(1);

Or 

Serial.print(0);

Your code is printing out the ASCII value of 1 and 0...
