Learning C for Arduino by Syed Omar Faruk Towaha

Key FeaturesGet hands-on experience with the Ardruino board and learn to control it with your programming skillsLearn the essential concepts of C such as variables, data structures, functions, loops, and pointersWork with electronic devices such as LEDs, switches, and motors and connect them to Arduino using CBook DescriptionThis book will start with the fundamentals of C programming and programming topics, such data types, functions, decision making, program loops, pointers, and structures, with the help of an Arduino board. Then you will get acquainted with Arduino interactions with sensors, LEDs, and autonomous systems and setting up the Arduino environment. Moving on you will also learn how to work on the digital and analog I/O, establish serial communications with autonomous systems, and integrate with electronic devices. By the end of the book, you will be able to make basic projects such as LED cube and smart weather system that leverages C.What you will learnPlay with mathematical operations using CUse logical operations and loops to play with LEDs and the Arduino boardCreate custom functions using C and connect an SD card to the ArduinoUse Object-oriented Programming to connect a GSM module to the Arduino boardPlay with an LCD board and Servo using standard Arduino librariesBuild projects using Arduino such as a LED cube, a smart weather system, and home securityIdentify and fix common errors on an Arduino boardAbout the AuthorSyed Omar Faruk Towaha has degrees in physics and computer engineering.
