Hi.
Does anyone have any example programs that I could use to get the hang of Arduino?
There are examples that are installed with the Arduino IDE.
If you go trough these and grasp each topic you will get a great footing with this platform.

What is your background?
.
The Arduino IDE software comes with a whole bunch of examples.
File -> Examples -> 01.Basics, 02.Digital, etc...
If you only have the board, and no other hardware components to play with, you should look at what's in the starter kit and get at least some of it: breadboard, push buttons, LEDs, resistors, wires.. so you can build some simple circuits and hook up your Arduino to it.

I have none.
Thank you for the tips!
I found this very helpful, it explains a number of concepts and breaks the code down into manageable bites (or should that be bytes?)
