Hello! If a situation arises when it is necessary to find out the humidity and temperature, but the display is not possible to use for some reason.

List of reasons:

• expensive;
• afraid of moisture;
• too lazy to solder;
• a small print that is not visible at all;
• important aesthetics and minimalism;
• all listed together.

In this case, there is an excellent reason to use the color approach to displaying information. Everything would be fine, but the primary colors are completely worthless - some seven (from the rainbow). Can you distinguish between light blue and blue or yellow from orange? What to do? Remove such strange colors! Leave: Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple and White (unexpectedly, yes?). How much did it work? 6. And there are 10 digits, and even a minus for negative numbers, a floating point and a separator. We will be smart and make a flasher! Violet - it will be 5, and six it will be 5 + 1, and 1 will be Red. Just fit. Huh! Table 1 shows the colors for the corresponding characters.

Primary you need download and connect the library. Then declare a custom callback function void callback (int, int, int) R, G, B - channels (from 0 to 255), which will access the hardware (light up the LED). Call the lightf function, where the first argument will be a pointer to this same callback function, then a line with a format that is completely analogous to printf and any number of arguments. Remember to use the newline character \ n, after each qualifier in the format string.

At my fingertips lies the Base Unit M5Stack FIRE with built-in Neopixel panels, for testing, as nothing else is better. You can watch a video demonstrating a sketch showing the Pi number with an accuracy of 6 decimal places (YouTube) here.

Thanks!
