//! # LCD Display Example //! //! In this example, the RP2040 is configured to drive a small two-line //! alphanumeric LCD using the //! [HD44780](https://crates.io/crates/hd44780-driver) driver. //! //! This example drives the LCD by pushing data out of six GPIO pins, writing //! the data four bits at a time. A faster alternative can be created using //! HD44780::new_8bit() but requiring an additional four GPIO pins. //! //!
