Initialize an I/O port for general use

void PortF_Init(void){ volatile unsigned long delay;

  SYSCTL_RCGC2_R |= 0x00000020;     // 1) activate clock for Port F

  delay = SYSCTL_RCGC2_R;           // allow time for clock to start

  GPIO_PORTF_LOCK_R = 0x4C4F434B;   // 2) unlock GPIO Port F

  GPIO_PORTF_CR_R = 0x1F;           // allow changes to PF4-0

  // only PF0 needs to be unlocked, other bits can't be locked

  GPIO_PORTF_AMSEL_R = 0x00;        // 3) disable analog on PF

  GPIO_PORTF_PCTL_R = 0x00000000;   // 4) PCTL GPIO on PF4-0
