Arduino Code Basics
Getting Ready
• Here we begin with the basics of coding for Arduino. Writing code for Arduino
and other embedded platforms is a little different from writing code for a
computer. We write these codes in a programing language called C or C++
But don't fear—the differences are small.
What is software?
• It is the programs that runs on an operating system for e.g.:
• Safari that runs on iOS
• Microsoft Word that runs on Windows 10
• Google Chrome that runs on Android
• Program (C++ language) is a set of instructions we give to hardware
(the Arduino UNO) so that it can do a specific function (turning on a
bulb for example).
Programming Languages
• Just as we get different languages across the world, we also get
different programming languages.
• They might look different but most of them are similar.
• Examples of programming languages include:
• C
• C++
• Microsoft Basic
• Java
• Python
