In-Depth Information
These selections let you create, open, upload, and print files in the Arduino IDE. Once
you click on
File
, you will get the following options:
•
New
: This is straightforward; you use this if you want to create a new file.
•
Open…
: This is equally clear; select this if you want to open a file that you cre-
ated earlier.
•
Sketchbook
: This is probably a new term, one with which you are not familiar.
Arduino programs are called sketches, and
Sketchbook
keeps track of sketches
you have created. You'll also find sketches placed there if you have downloaded
libraries associated with additional HW shields you may have purchased.
