The main contents of this book are as follows:


Chapter 01: Building Arduino Basics introduces Arduino, the kits used in this book, Arduino development environment configuration, Arduino sketch structure, and Arduino pins.
Special pages introduce functions and variables.

Chapter 02: Becoming an Arduino Beginner prepares you to become an Arduino beginner.
We'll cover how Arduino sends messages to the user, how to blink an LED, how to build an LED circuit, and how to control the brightness of an LED.
Additionally, we will introduce the basic usage of NeoPixel and how to create a library by creating cpp and h files.
The special page introduces the basic data types of C/C++, for loops, while loops, the relationship between arrays and for loops, and the relationship between arrays, functions, and pointers.


Chapter 03 Arduino Renewal prepares you to become an Arduino Renewal Expert.
We'll show you how Arduino receives user commands, reads buttons, reads sensors, plays melodies, moves servos, and measures distances using ultrasonic sensors.
Special pages introduce switch statements, structures, pointers and references, and classes.

Chapter 04 Becoming an Arduino Expert prepares you to become an Arduino expert.
Using the Timer1 library, we'll understand the principles of square wave (PWM) and explore external interrupts and pin signal change interrupts. If you understand the principles of PWM and interrupts, you can be considered an Arduino expert.

Chapter 05 Using NeoPixel will look at how to use NeoPixel.
And, we will carry out a brick breaker game project using NeoPixel.
Special pages introduce how to pass secondary arrays to functions, class inheritance, and polymorphism.
