terminal program. A terminal is a program that gives you a text-based interface to
perform various tasks.
Are you using Mu?
If so, good news! The serial console is built into Mu and will autodetect your board
making using the serial console really really easy.
Once you've opened Mu with your board plugged in, look for the Serial button in the
button bar and click it.
The Mu window will split in two, horizontally, and display the serial console at the
bottom.
If nothing appears in the serial console, it may mean your code is done running
or has no print statements in it. Click into the serial console part of Mu, and press
CTRL+D to reload.

First, make sure your CircuitPython board
is plugged in.
If you open Mu without a board plugged
in, you may encounter the error seen here,
letting you know no CircuitPython board
was found and indicating where your code
will be stored until you plug in a board.
If you are using Windows 7, make sure you
installed the
drivers ().
