Quick example
-------------
To blink an LED:
import time
from machine import Pin
LED = Pin(("GPIO_1", 21), Pin.OUT)
while True:
LED.value(1)
time.sleep(0.5)
LED.value(0)
time.sleep(0.5)
The above code uses an LED location for a FRDM-K64F board (port B, pin 21;
following Zephyr conventions port are identified by "GPIO_x", where *x*
starts from 0). You will need to adjust it for another board (using board's
reference materials). To execute the above sample, copy it to clipboard, in
MicroPython REPL enter "paste mode" using Ctrl+E, paste clipboard, press
Ctrl+D to finish paste mode and start execution.
