The provided code for the Arduino Nano is a template with empty setup()
and loop()
functions. The setup()
function is intended to contain initialization code that runs once when the microcontroller is powered on or reset. The loop()
function is designed to contain the main logic of the program, which will be executed repeatedly as long as the microcontroller is powered.
Additional Notes
