This post is for the lucky owners of the BerryClip 6 LED add on board and is the first of a series of posts to get you started with an alternative to Python. This article covers using C, but there will be future posts for using the BerryClip directly from Scratch and also using the node.js javascript language. The easiest way to do this in C, is to use the  very popular wiringPi C library developed by Gordon Henderson, aka drogon.

This is my first go with pygame on the Raspberry Pi. I thought I’d share with you this little project for testing that your BerryClip 6 LED addon board is working properly. Here is a screenshot of the program running in the graphical interface : It is quite a simple program and works with keyboard or mouse. It gives you visual cues in the program and tests all the functionality of the Berryclip.
