I try to point out any specific hardware parts or software packages where I
first use them, but I also want to give you a quick list of the various
components for easy reference. I wasn’t paid for mentioning any products
nor do the various owners and manufacturers endorse my book.
The glowing opinions I express here are entirely my own. :)
Getting the Code
The C examples and Arduino Sketches are all available online at https://github.com/l0y/smallerc.
Most examples have links to their particular files, but you can also download the archive using
the drop-down shown in Figure A-1.
For the C examples, there’s not really anything else to do. You can open any of the
examples in your editor of choice. You can make and save your changes, then compile the examples
right there in the same folder.
For the various sketches, you may want to drag each sketch folder over to your
Arduino Sketchbook location as you work on it. (This location is set in the Arduino
IDE preferences, as shown in Figure 11-9 from
“The libraries folder”.) This will make
sure you have access to any libraries you may have installed. It also means you can
look in the “usual spot” for these projects after you’re done
with the book.

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Data Platform Tech Lead
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
