Sololearn to learn Arduino code language?

I want to use my old Arduino kit again and wonder if Sololearn can help me. From old experience, I remember Arduino has its own coding language. It was similar to C but not exactly? Anyway, would Sololearn’s C or C++ courses be a good refresher when I’m away from my computer? I love python, but I’m upset new raspberry pi board prices are so high now. The only pi board I have, I plan to make a permanent device. I don’t want to give up tinkering and software work. Any tips or advice? Thanks!

The Arduino runs C yes. It's just that you don't have a `main` function like in a normal program, and you are provided some extra code for interacting with the I/O pins and such. At the end of the day it's just C though so doing the course here definitely helps :) If your Pi is beefy enough, run your services inside docker containers, you'll thank yourself in a couple months. There's nothing worse than having to set up your entire Pi from scratch especially after you forgot what software even runs on that thing.. with docker-compose it's trivial.

Schindlabua Thank you so much for your answer about C! You made my day. Thanks for the advice on docker containers too. I will keep that in mind. You’ve made me a very happy Sololearn user!
