4arduino Language Preference

The document discusses the Arduino programming language. It describes Arduino as an open-source hardware and software platform that allows users to prototype electronics projects. The Arduino platform consists of a circuit board with a microcontroller that can be programmed using the Arduino IDE software. Programs written for Arduino, called sketches, have two main functions - setup() which runs once at startup to initialize variables, and loop() which repeats continuously to actively control the board. The document outlines the basic structure of Arduino programs and some key functions like digitalWrite() for controlling the board.

Arduino Overview
• Arduino is a prototype platform
(open-source) based on an easy-to-
use hardware and software.
• It consists of a circuit board, which
can be programed (referred to as a
microcontroller) and a ready-made
software called Arduino IDE
(Integrated Development
Environment), which is used to write
and upload the computer code to the
physical board.
Key Features
• Arduino boards are able to read analog or digital input signals
from different sensors and turn it into an output such as
activating a motor, turning LED on/off, connect to the cloud and
many other actions.
• You can control your board functions by sending a set of
instructions to the microcontroller on the board via Arduino IDE
(referred to as uploading software).
• Unlike most previous programmable circuit boards, Arduino
does not need an extra piece of hardware (called a
programmer) in order to load a new code onto the board. You
can simply use a USB cable.
• Additionally, the Arduino IDE uses a simplified version of C++,
making it easier to learn to program.
• Finally, Arduino provides a standard form factor that breaks the
functions of the micro-controller into a more accessible
package.

Arduino Program
Structure
• Arduino programs can be divided in
three main parts: Structure, Values
(variables and constants), and
Functions. In this tutorial, we will learn
about the Arduino software program,
step by step, and how we can write the
program without any syntax or
compilation error.
Structure
• Software structure consists of two
main functions

• Setup() function
• Loop() function
Void Setup(){
}
• The setup() function is called when a sketch starts. Use it to
initialize the variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The
setup function will only run once, after each power up or reset
of the Arduino board.

Void Loop(){
}
• After creating a setup() function, which initializes and sets the initial
values, the loop() function does precisely what its name suggests,
and loops consecutively, allowing your program to change and
respond. Use it to actively control the Arduino board.
