+" pyb.udelay(n) -- wait for n microseconds\n"
+" pyb.switch() -- return True/False if switch pressed or not\n"
+" pyb.switch(f) -- call the given function when the switch is pressed\n"
+" pyb.Led(n) -- create Led object for LED n (n=1,2,3,4)\n"
+" Led methods: on(), off(), toggle(), intensity(<n>)\n"
+" pyb.Servo(n) -- create Servo object for servo n (n=1,2,3,4)\n"
+" Servo methods: calibrate(...), pulse_width([p]), angle([x, [t]]), speed([x, [t]])\n"
+" pyb.Accel() -- create an Accelerometer object\n"
+" Accelerometer methods: x(), y(), z(), tilt(), filtered_xyz()\n"
+" pyb.rng() -- get a 30-bit hardware random number\n"
