current program and uploads it to the Arduino board you ve chosen in
the IDE s Tools > Serial Port menu. (You ll learn more about this in

• The New button (DN or Ctrl-N) creates a new program by emptying the
content of the current editor window. Before that happens, the IDE gives
you the opportunity to store all unsaved changes.
• Open (DO or Ctrl-O) opens an existing program from the file system.
• Save (DS or Ctrl-S) saves the current program.
• The Arduino can communicate with a computer via a serial connection.
