Rissy, you seek a genius but why are you trying to use 2 mqtt brokers when just one broker can service 1000's of clients? Mqtt client programs connected to just one broker (even one running on your little rpi) can send messages on whatever topic is desired and receive messages on whatever topics the...

basically because i don't know about the "_" and the "in range" commands. What does "_" do? and when can you randomly just shout out "in range" in the code? It's all of these intricacies which I don't have in my head, which stops me from writing code like this, or understanding other people's code....

Can you take a look and tell me if you think this is correct...(by that i mean work)? It may work, too hard to say without actually running it. Some quick observations are: for your led blinking code consider: def flash_led(num_flashes, on_time, off_time,): for _ in range(num_flashes): led.on() tim...

Could you please post a screenshot? Is your browser using the mobile or desktop version? (The "right panel" you mention makes it sound like the desktop version) I think that must be it, I was viewing the normal desktop version on my ipad. I got the the github from the link in the forum, and that li...

Can anyone give me some assistance with correcting this code where I need to to make it work?

Have a peep at this:

it looks ok in landscape orientation. It looks better :D . But on my old ipad air somethings not playing right with github. I cannot login, I cannot change from double spacing from single spacing and a circle keeps wiring around. Maybe something to do with the tablet being too old to take the lates...

I just had a look at the GitHub Discussions. Probably OK on a PC with a large screen, but the postings bit is on the a panel in the middle of the screen, with equal screen estate being given to a left panel showing the topic sections and a right panel showing some voting stuff. Only a third of the v...

Rissy, the code you show flashes the Led 5 times. exactly 5 times. As it happens I was putting the latest micropython on to a new rpi PicoW (V1.19.1) so just incase a bug had crept in as theres no stable release showing as yet I put your code on the board and ran it. 5 nice green flashes. :) Edit: I...

Rissy, Although I expect your funny code examples of MQTT_PW_Vars.py, Globals.py and PicoW_Vars.py was just trying to show using global variables to print them out from another program, but your real programs will do much more. Nevertheless, even as you now know your use of global vars for separatel...

Just out of interest, where in the world are you beetle?

In Norfolk UK. And please send some rain this way. Where are you?
