Python Programming for Arduino

Introduction to Arduino programming

The Arduino platform was introduced to simplify electronic hardware prototyping for everyone. For this reason, Arduino programming was intended to be easy to learn by nonprogrammers such as designers, artists, and students. The Arduino language is implemented in C/C++, while the fundamentals of the sketch and program structures are derived from an open source programming language called Processing and an open source electronic prototyping language called Wiring.

Comments

Arduino follows a commenting format that is adopted from C and it is similar to higher-level languages; however, it is different from the Python comment format that we learned earlier in this chapter. There are various methods of commenting, ...
