Publisher's Synopsis
Are you looking for an easy way to learn programming, one that can help you to really work on some strong programs and applications, but will be easy enough for a beginner to understand? Have you looked at some of the other options out there and feel like they are too in-depth or hard to use for some of the basics that you want to know? Have you been able to look at some of the circuit boards out there, but they are not powerful enough or will not work with the operating system that you like to use?
There are a lot of people who want to work with coding and programming, but they are stopped for one reason or another. It is too hard, they don't have the experience, it doesn't work with the coding they want to do and so on. This is where the Arduino technology can come into play and help us to finally learn some of the coding that we want. This technology was actually designed for the beginner, for those who have no technical experience at all, to help them get a good grasp on the basics of coding.
This guidebook is going to explore more about this Arduino technology and how we are able to use it for our own needs. Some of the topics that we are going to explore will include:
- What the Arduino technology is all about and how even beginners are able to learn with it in no time.
- Some of the benefits of working with this technology.
- What types of boards are available for us to purchase and use based on the programming needs that we have.
- How to get started with this language by learning some of the common terms that will help guide us through this process.
- How to hook up the board to your computer so you can get started.
- How to turn this board into a machine that is able to work on various projects.
- Understanding how to work with a sketch and even some examples of how you can create some of your own sketches as well.
- The basics of creating a basic user-based function for your coding.
- A look at the different functions that we are able to use in the Arduino language and what they all mean.
- How to work with the Arduino API and some of the functions that help bring more power to this.
- And so much more!
There are a lot of options out there when you are looking to get started with coding. But if you are brand new to the process, you may worry that they are going to be too hard and too difficult to focus on and get the results that you would like. When you are ready to learn how to work with Arduino, a system that was designed with the beginner and non-technical person in mind, make sure to check out this guidebook to help you get started.
