Can someone please clear up a query I have on multiplexing. I've just spent a stack of time trying to learn to program an arduino to study the effect of:
I believe from what I've read that the delay should be around 30 frames per second. Does this mean a delay of 33/1000 sec for 2 digits? I seem to have to type in 10 in my code for it to stop the flicker (not 33).
For 3 digits I need to set the delay to 7 and for 4 digits, a delay of 3. Can someone please tell me the maths for this.
I've also uploaded a video of my code running (see link below).

If anyone's interested in the code, see attached file...

When multiplexing 2 seven segment digits, what is the lowest delay required so that I don't see the "flickering"
Same with 3 seven segment displays
Same with 4
Also what is the intensity difference with having 2 digits multiplexed vs on full time
Ditto with 4 digits
