Python Programming for Arduino

Summary

Between the two programming methods that you learned in this chapter, the method that uses just an Arduino sketch represents the traditional paradigm of programming a microcontroller. While this method is simple to implement, it lacks the extensiveness that is achieved by Python-Arduino interfacing. Although we will use extensive Arduino coding in all the projects beginning from now, exercises and projects will have Python-Arduino interfacing as the primary way of programming.

Starting from the next chapter, we are going to explore the additional aspects of Python programming that can extend the usability of an Arduino-based hardware project while keeping the programming difficulty levels to a minimum. We will begin with Python-Arduino ...
