This article is an application of Python’s list data structure to store the frequency count of random numbers which is useful for further statistical use. This article relies on knowledge of random numbers and using list type variables tested with Micropython on esp8266 and esp32 microcontrollers.
This article is an application of Python programming for Micropython used with esp8266 or esp32 attached to DHT11 for temperature and humidity storage. The last 10 temperature results collected every 5 seconds are reported as shown in Figure 1.
This article introduces the use of the list class in Micropython as a queue data structure with a limited number of members. It works according to the FIFO (First-In-First-Out) principle, which can be applied in a variety of applications, such as being used as a storage, and when the data is full but we need to insert new data, the old data must be pop out. The example in this article uses the dCore-miniML board (Figure 1) to read the temperature of the chip and store it in a Queue structure and display it in a bar graph and Micropython implemented firmware version 1.16 (2021-06-23) for the ESP Module (SPIRAM).

From the article on using the ESP8266 with an OLED graphical display written in Python, you’ll find that it’s fast and easy but when used with other microcontrollers that cannot use Micropython or CircuitPython, what must be done? One of the many options is the u8glib or u8g2 (Universal 8 bit Graphics Library) libraries, designed to work with monochromatic 8-bit graphics over either I2C or SPI communication. In this article, we are using I2C OLED as shown in Figure 1.
From the previous ulab article, it was found that Micropython can implement the same dataset processing instructions as used in Numpy through the previous ulab library v.0.54.0 which is the older version of ulab (currently v.3.0.1) brought up this article. This article describes how to create a Micropython that integrates the ulab library and uses it with SPIRAM versions of esp32.

From Figure 1, it can be seen that the structure of the ulab library has changed from the original. This causes the programming from the previous example to have to be modified. Under ulab there are libraries of numpy and scipy. The details of numpy that are supported are as follows.
