Setting up micropython

As discussed, in my last blog I told you how to setup micropython on raspberry pi pico in today's blog I will show you how to control your pico with micropython scripts the IDE we are going to use is Thonny. You can download thonny from here . Thonny Thonny is an integrated development environment for Python that is designed for beginners. It supports different ways of stepping through the code, step-by-step expression evaluation, detailed visualization of the call stack and a mode for explaining the concepts of references and heap. Thonny with Pico Thonny can be use to program Pico and the steps are quite easy. 1.) Connect your board to your system. 2.) Launch thonny now look for "Run" drop down menu and click on select interpreter and from the list select "Micropython (Raspberry pi Pico)". 3.)

  Raspberry pi The Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python.                                                                Raspberry pi Pico Raspberry Pi Pico is micro-controller board powered by a powerful Raspberry Pi designed dual core ARM Cortex M0+ Processor and has 256KB RAM and 2MB Flash. Well that sums up the concept of Raspberry pi pico. Let's get started with the main steps. Pico comes blank it's up to us whether to program it with c,c++ sdk or micropython sdk. In this blog I will be covering the pico with  micropython. There are certain steps that we have to keep in mind in order to setup python sdk on our Raspberry pi pico. 1. We have to download the .uf2 file from the official website. 2. Now , we have to connect the board
