Set pin direction to output, e.g. DDRA |= (1<<PA0);
Setting pin in port register to HIGH will turn on the LED; setting it to LOW will turn it off.

PORTA |= (1<<PA0); //Turn LED on

PORTA &= ~(1<<PA0); //Turn LED off

Activate internal pullup or add an external pullup to the circuit! PORTA |= (1<<PA1);
If the pin bit in PINA is set, the switch is open, if it is clear the switch is closed.
