Arduino and Python LESSON 2: Installing the Software and Libraries

[stephenmichael]

took me forever but i finally got my Arduino to talk to python 3.8 using pyCharm. Cant wait to learn more!

HELLO SIR I AM ROHAN FROM INDIA, FACILITIES HERE ARE NOT GOOD IF YOU ARE NOT IN THE TOP UNIVERSITIES BUT WHEN I AM SPENDING MY DAY AND NIGHT JUST WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS I THINK I AM AHEAD OF EVERYONE THANK YOU

[charlesbrewer]

Belive it or not in Australia, in the early ninteen sixties when I was in Primary School, I was taught to count seconds
One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississippi, ect.

Way over in Sydney, Australia!

By the way, I love your video's. I especially like your "space launches" where you involve the wide range of developing talents of your students and involve all of them.
I wish that I had a teacher like YOU, when I was in high school. What you are doing is VERY impressive!
Your students are very fortunate, and, are developing exceptionally!
I have been watching for years. Well done!

Best wishes.

You can't imagine how much this video has helped me, thank you for making it. Keep up the good work

This is the best video on YouTube to learn communicating with Arduino from python!!

Thank you Paul

[codaciencia]

Your tutorials are fantastic, Paul.Thanks from the city of São Paulo!

Hello Paul, it was really hard to install Python, VPython and physerial on a Mac with OS-X. But now - after many unsuccessful attempts - I am really happy: it works and I could start my first example program! Now I am looking forward to discovering new possibilities with the new programming language. Thanks for Your teaching and greetings from Germany :-)

I like how enthusiastic you are about this "communication" between arduino and phyton

[cloudzhen]

Please make python 3.9 new lessons!!! I watched all the new remake Arduino lessons and now going backwards for this, but found out python already at 3.9!!! Please!!!! we need you

Same python code tested with a bluetooth pendrive and worked very well

HI Paul... Growing up in Northside Chicago in 1970s I remember learning "X Mississippi" counting from friends in neighborhood. We would use it for counting while playing the game "Tag" or "Ghost in the Graveyard."

[mikemoragne]

I totally counted 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 .... as a kid! When counting for freeze tag or something it was “10 Mississippi’s!” I grew up in Louisiana if it helps!

Also loving the videos. Finished the new Arduino and new Python videos but ran out so going back and seeing the rest!!

[nicholasesposito]

just finished your new Arduino tutorial and am now going through this tutorial series while i wait for materials from the robotics tutorial and the 9 - axis tutorials to be delivered, ordered through your link ;)
cant stress enough how awesome and helpful these tutorials are, i am 18 going into college in the fall for computer engineering, wish id found these tutorials during high school i would have had nothing to do but spend all my time learning, better late than never !!! i know that 18 is not late haha
thank u!!

[tophattommy]

Thank you for this! I've been using a LOT of python and a moderate amount of usage with the Raspberry Pi. I now have to introduce an Arduino into the mix and you just save me a ton of time!!

[lesliethatcher]

Finished the new Arduino tutorials now starting these while waiting for my robot car to arrive

[rachniotov]

Please please, please make a video on your "crazy ideas" folder [13:51] . I would love to watch that!!

[McGavel]

Woot, got it to work! I'm using Sublime Text 2 as my IDE (go to tools then build for Python then choose build to run the Python codes in ST2) with Python 3.4.3 and didn't really want to uninstall it until I have to for the Vpython projects. Pretty exciting stuff because I know that PHP and Python can create text files so a text file might be a good way to pass data to a website or get data from one; thus allowing a cell phone to control Arduino ~_^

Thanks again for all the great projects - can't wait to learn more about Python since I barely looked into it a year ago or so. Peace - gl all.

Hello 2024 people!!! He has a 2022 version of this class. Look up: Using an Arduino with Python LESSON 1: Introduction, Prerequisites and Class Gear

[cbrombaugh]

After finishing the most excellent first Arduino course, I am starting the Arduino-Python course. I am concerned that the material is old enough that some of may not work now. I assume that if the course were written now it would use Python 3.X. Your tutorials are truly excellent, Paul!

[derkeks]

Just looked into Arduino and was distraught at seeing the programs in C (or at least I think it is?). You would not believe my delight when I searched "Arduino and python" to find this video!
Thanks for this series mate.
