SETTING UP THE ARDUINO IDE AND TINKERCAD CIRCUITS
                 To program the Arduino, we use the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment).

                 Steps to Set Up Arduino IDE:

                 Step  1    Download and install Arduino IDE from www.arduino.cc.

                 Step  2    Connect your Arduino board to the computer using a USB cable.
                 Step  3    Select the correct board and port in the Arduino IDE.

                 Step  4    Write your first program.

                 Step  5    Upload the code and see the magic happen!



























                 Using Tinkercad for Virtual Circuits
                 If you don’t have a physical Arduino board, you can use Tinkercad Circuits, a free online simulator.

                 Steps to Use Tinkercad Circuits:

                 Tinkercad Circuits is a free online simulator that allows students to build and test circuits before
                 working with real hardware.

                 Step  1    Go to www.Tinkercad.com and sign in as a Student.
