Overview of this book

This 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.

Summary


In this chapter, we have learned a lot of things. We learned the characteristics of OOPs and we learned how to configure a GSM Shield with the Arduino board. This chapter is one of the most important chapters if you want to improve your use of the microcontroller and OOPs concepts. I do not recommend that you skip this chapter. If you feel this chapter is hard, try to study and do the exercises in a silent environment and do the electrical parts with caution. You might get a number of errors. Don't feel disappointed; just move to Chapter 10, Few Error Handlings. I hope this chapter won't be that hard for you. You will find a number of solutions to the problems you might find while working with the GSM Shield and Arduino. In the next chapter, we will learn two interesting thing-pointers and structure of C programming.
