need help with arduino communication with my computer

Hello guys , I am relatively new with arduino. I need your expert help on a matter of prime importance. I need to know how an arduino can communicate to the terminal (stdIn). So that the value passed by it gets accepted by another program running on the terminal. In short I want a value to be entered by my arduino to a program running on the terminal. Is that possible in anyway. Looking forward to your help. :slight_smile:

Yes, it is possible. The Arduino can send data to the host through the Serial functions. You can find out all about them in the on-line reference. As for the host end, that is up to you, but if you have any experience in programming I/O then you'll have no issue.

The Serial functions can be found here: Serial - Arduino Reference
