pico-micropython-examples VS pico-rectangle

You would have to look at the code to be sure. (I'm too lazy to look.) But if you want, you can use this code to ensure that you are using the PIO hardware (and that wouldn't have problems with interrupts): https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-micropython-examples/blob/master/pio/pio_pwm.py

You can then look at the MicroPython pico examples and try adding the adc code to read the onboard temperature, and send it in the request. Then you can look for help on using the Adafruit_DHT code. Take small steps.

Python already exists for the pico. It is a micropython port. Once you've downloaded it, you have an interactive Python prompt and a filesystem you can place a main.py file in to run at reboot. MicroPython is a fantastic way to start with microprocessors.

Thank you so much for your help. is resp=b"" equal to resp=bytes() ? and why the author did not use decode or encode? see this please-> https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-micropython-examples/blob/master/uart/loopback/uart.py

When working with the Pico and MicroPython, I've found an endless amount of use from the Pico MicroPython Examples repository on GitHub.

Line 7 - 9: Pio assembler commands as documented in the official documentation. In MicroPython, there are subtle differences to the naming conventions, so be sure to read the community documentation and also browse the examples

That you don't have to worry about that being the case. If you want to see the nitty gritty of how it functions, here is the pico rectangle ultimate DAC algorithm

My main concern is power. The rp2040+ supports simultaneous charging and use, but I also want to make sure I don't accidentally leak power back up the cable (especially to the gamecube, since this could break it). I followed the circuit diagram for the usb c breakout, but since I am using a battery pack I have some concerns. There is also the rp2040+ schematic available online.

if you're playing on console it's a different story, you'd have to either get a prebuilt that works on the gamecube or use something like pico-rectangle.

Pico Rectangle - Arte

It's easy enough to write your own firmware for a box controller, the software is already out there on Github. So it's not enough even if all of Hitbox, Hax, Goomy, Greg Turbo, and Panda are all on board.
