Coding on Arduino
Goals & Objectives
A. Learn the Arduino development environment and be able to use it effectively
A. Learn the Arduino development environment and be able to use it effectively
- Set up Arduino on your computer
- Name and store files appropriately
- Learn syntax and program structure (declarations, setup, loop)
- use comment lines to name your program and make notes
- declare and set variables of different data types
- Use logic and control structures to control program flow (for, if, while)
- Create simple functions to make coding more efficient
- Research Arduino commands as needed using online tools
- Debug code effectively (print statements, step through, commenting out)
- Create programs that use the given components and accomplish tasks that you define
- get input from user and display text using a Serial monitor (computer screen)
- Set up pins as input or output to control/read electronic devices
- use a breadboard to connect Arduino to electronics components
- Sensors: Ultrasonic distance sensor, pushbutton switches
- Actuators: LEDs, Servo motors, speakers
- Install and use libraries associated with components
