Arduino IDE
Arduino IDE
What is an IDE?

● An integrated development environment with tools for writing


and testing code.

Features:

● Text editor, compiler, debugger, and more.


Compiler
Definition:

● A compiler translates programming language source code into


machine code.

Arduino's Compiler:

● Integrated into the Arduino IDE with buttons to verify and


upload sketches.
Opening the
Arduino IDE
Steps:

● How to open the Arduino IDE and start a new project.

Components:

● Overview of the IDE window components.

Visuals:

● Annotated screenshot of the IDE.


Mandatory
Functions

● setup(): Runs once at startup.


● loop(): Runs continuously after setup().
Variables and Data Types
Comments:

● Single-line and multi-line comments.

Comments and Case Sensitivity:

Case Sensitivity
● Importance of correct capitalization in programming.
camel Casing
Definition:

● Technique to separate words in variable names without spaces.

Examples:

● ledPin, myVariable.
LED Blinking Code
Variables (Revision)
Definition:

● Names for memory locations storing values.

Types:

Arithmetic Operators:

● Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division (Revision).

Increment and Decrement Operators:

Operators ● ++, --.

Module Operator:

● %.
Logical Operators

Operators:

● &&, ||, !.

Usage:

● Used to combine multiple conditions.


Data Types:

● int, float, char, boolean.

More on Data Global and Local Variables (Revision):

Types ● Scope of variables.

Qualifiers:

● Constant Qualifiers: const.


● Static Qualifiers: static.
Comparison Operators
(Revision)
Operators:

● ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=.

Usage:

● Used in conditional statements to compare values.


Control Structures
if Statement

Syntax:

● if (condition) { ... }

Usage:

● Executes code block if the condition is true.


switch Case
Syntax:

● switch (variable) { case value: ... }

Usage:

● Executes code block based on variable value.


Loop Structures
for() and while Loop for

● Syntax:
○ for (initialization; condition; increment) { ... }
● Usage:
○ Repeats code block a specific number of times.

while

Syntax:

● while (condition) { ... }

Usage:

● Repeats code block while condition is true.


Comparison:

● while() checks the condition before running the code block.


Difference Between ● do...while() runs the code block at least once before checking
the condition.

while() and do...while()


break Statement

Usage:

● Exits the nearest loop or switch statement.
