Raspberry Pi Pico

The destination for stdout can be changed using CMake directives, with output directed to UART or USB CDC, or to both,
pico_enable_stdio_usb(hello_world 1) ①
pico_enable_stdio_uart(hello_world 0) ②
1.
Enable printf output via USB CDC (USB serial)
2.
Disable printf output via UART
This means that without changing the C source code, you can change the destination for stdio from UART to USB.

4.2. Build "Hello World"
As we did for the previous "Blink" example, change directory into the hello_world directory inside the pico-examples/build
tree, and run make.
$ cd hello_world
$ make -j4

This will build two separate examples programs in the hello_world/serial/ and hello_world/usb/ directories.
