DESCRIPTION:In the third part of the series\, we will explore inputs and ou
 tputs\, majorly exploring digital inputs and outputs. The following is the
  breakdown.\n\n- Inputs (1.5 hours):\n- Types of digital inputs (pushbutto
 ns\, switches\, sensors)\n- Internal pull-up and pull-down resistors\n- Re
 ading digital inputs using MicroPython\n- Debouncing techniques for pushbu
 ttons (optional)\n- Hands-on Lab: Interfacing pushbuttons with the Raspber
 ry Pi Pico (reading button states\, implementing simple logic)\n\n- Output
 s (1.5 hours):\n- Types of digital outputs (LEDs\, relays\, actuators)\n- 
 Controlling digital outputs using MicroPython (turning LEDs on/off)\n- Pul
 se Width Modulation (PWM) for analog-like control (optional)\n- Hands-on L
 ab: Interfacing LEDs with the Raspberry Pi Pico (blinking LEDs\, controlli
 ng brightness with PWM)\n\nRoom: Training Room\, Bldg: Chandaria Innovatio
