Installation of Thonny IDE and micropython.

raspi_pico_pinout

Learn basis on using Thonny,commands and the shell.Noted that the RPI has the communication protocals for everycode to be save as (name.py).By write a code to blink the on board LED(gpio 25) the following commands were introduced.

from machine import Pin
from time import sleep
led = Pin(25,Pin.OUT)
while True:
 led.on()
 sleep(1)
 led.off()
 sleep(1)

Further, I was able to introduce an external LED

from machine import Pin
from time import sleep
led = Pin(16, Pin.OUT)
while True:
led.on()
sleep(1)
led.off()
sleep(1)
