CSC 231 Lab # 4

Arduino
You will find information on how to setup the Arduino software on a Mac and on a Linux box [[CSC231 Links and Resources | here]. These represent the step I took to install the software on my machines. I didn't document installing under Windows as the Web has very good coverage of these steps.
Setup
- Boot your PC with the Ubuntu LiveCD which you will have received.
- Go to the /root folder, find the Arduino software and star the IDE
- Connect the USB cable to the computer, and the Arduino to the USB cable
Tutorials
Follow the very nice tutorial pages from the page located at http://ladyada.net/learn/arduino/ :
- Lesson 1: Skip the first part, and go to the Startup! Section.
- Lesson 2. Do the whole lesson. Save to your memory stick whenever you are asked to save your sketch. Do the exercises at the end (and turn the lights off for Exercise 3!)
- Lesson 4. Do the whole lesson, and stop at the Pythagorean party section. Just for kicks, check the section labeled Introduction to types, part 2, do you recognize anything? :-)
