How to Use an Arduino

This video tutorial guides you through setting up an Arduino Uno and running a basic program to blink the onboard LED. It covers the installation of the Arduino IDE, connecting the Arduino to a computer, and running a built-in example program. The tutorial explains the code structure, including setup and loop functions, and presents a challenge to modify the LED blink timing. By the end, viewers will have edited their first Arduino program and be ready to write their own code.
