Hello, I'm trying make two raspberry Pi Pico talk to each other in i2c one with a writer and the second one as a reader. I used this link here to get started https://www.electronicwings.com/arduino/arduino-i2c. For some odd reason and I'm not sure I'm unable to get one to write or read it. I'm not sure what is wrong.
Does the pi pico use the same wire i2c libraries? I'm just wondering if the examples or library is the problem? The i2c pins I'm using on the pi pico are pin 11 and pin12, also sharing a Ground pin on pin13.
Edit: I'm just wondering what am I missing or doing wrong?

Writter:
// Wire Master Writer
// by Nicholas Zambetti <http://www.zambetti.com>
// Demonstrates use of the Wire library
// Writes data to an I2C/TWI slave device
// Refer to the "Wire Slave Receiver" example for use with this
// Created 29 March 2006
// This example code is in the public domain.
#include <Wire.h>
void setup() {
Wire.begin(); // join i2c bus (address optional for master)
}
byte x = 0;
void loop() {
Wire.beginTransmission(8); // transmit to device #8
Wire.write("x is "); // sends five bytes
Wire.write(x); // sends one byte
Wire.endTransmission(); // stop transmitting
x++;
delay(500);
}
Reader:
// Wire Slave Receiver
// by Nicholas Zambetti <http://www.zambetti.com>
// Demonstrates use of the Wire library
// Receives data as an I2C/TWI slave device
// Refer to the "Wire Master Writer" example for use with this

#include <Wire.h>
void setup() {
Wire.begin(8); // join i2c bus with address #8
Wire.onReceive(receiveEvent); // register event
Serial.begin(9600); // start serial for output
}
void loop() {
delay(100);
}
// function that executes whenever data is received from master
// this function is registered as an event, see setup()
void receiveEvent(int howMany) {
while (1 < Wire.available()) { // loop through all but the last
char c = Wire.read(); // receive byte as a character
Serial.print(c); // print the character
}
int x = Wire.read(); // receive byte as an integer
Serial.println(x); // print the integer
}
