Guide to Arduino lessons 

(L1 - L14) faster & a bit advanced.

What is Arduino?

Arduino is a small, low-cost computer board that you can program.
It’s made to help beginners learn electronics and programming.

What can it do?

With an Arduino, you can:

• Turn LEDs on and off

• Read sensors (light, temperature, motion, etc.)

• Control motors and servos

• Build small robots or smart home projects

Main parts

• Microcontroller (the “brain”)

• USB port (to connect to your computer)

• Power pins (5V, 3.3V, GND)

• Digital pins (for on/off signals)

• Analog pins (for reading varying signals, like from sensors)

How you program it

• You use the Arduino IDE on your computer.

• The language is similar to C/C++, but with simple functions like:

  • setup() – runs once at the start

  • loop() – runs again and again
