The gpio_put() function is a command given to the computer relating to the input of a statement. The “gpio” corresponds to the gp-pin of the pico designated for the code to run through, with “put” being the command that tells the computer that a code is to be “put” into the command.

The gpio_get() function is a command given to the computer relating to the output of a statement and is the opposite of the gpio_put() function. The “gpio” corresponds to the gp-pin of the pico designated for the code to run through, with “get” being the command that tells the computer that a code is to be “pulled” from the command. The code the computer needs to “get” must be the same code given to the computer in the corresponding gpio_put () function written in the same command box.
