RaspberryPi/LCD Display

Also see Arduino LCD Display, which was the original.

Overview

See Arduino LCD Display#Overview for an overview of how the LCD display works. It works by communicating with the microcontroller using I2C pins, which provide a way for integrated circuits to communicate with each other.

Python Sketch

More information about the Raspberry Pi GPIO pinouts and how to control 'em with Python is over on the RaspberryPi/Blink page.

Specifically, here is some Python code written to control GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi: RaspberryPi/Blink#The_Python_Code
