Introduction

In this second chapter of the book, we will learn how to use the General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins to read input signals and produce output signals. With that knowledge,we will create simple projects to control outputs and read sensor inputs. This will give way to the development of more complex projects in later chapters.
