Basics

What are the Microcontroller Programming Basics?

A microcontroller program generally consists of two essential functions: setup() and loop(). The setup() function initializes settings like pin modes and serial communication, while the loop() function contains the core logic that runs continuously, allowing the program to respond to inputs or carry out tasks. 

C and C++ are the primary programming languages used in microcontroller
development due to their efficiency and ability to interact closely with hardware. C
provides a solid foundation for understanding low-level operations, while C++ adds
object-oriented programming features for more complex projects.
