This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.

What programming language do we use? [Nov. 12, 2011, 8:27 p.m.]


Projects in this class should be in Processing.  You can run a Processing program (called a sketch) on a computer and have it interact with the Arduino board over a USB cable.  You can download the free Processing software from http://processing.org/download/ and prepare your Arduino by following the directions on this page: http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Interfacing/Processing

 

Programs for the Arduino are typically in the C programming language.  You can download the free programming software directly from http://arduino.cc This is especially true when the Arduino is disconnected from a computer.
