LED_PIN = 8          # GPIO connected to DIN. This is the GPIO Pin that you are using on your Pico.
NUM_LEDS = 12        # Number of LEDs, 0-11 is used, not 1-12. Set this to the number of LEDs on your strip/ring.

#  each time you write to an LED, you can use a fixed set of values, say (255,0,0) for red, however,
#  if you want to change the brightness at any time, you have to edit every value in your code. So by using a
#  variable here, we can # set the brightness once and it is used every time we write to the LEDs (LUMAR, 0, 0)
#  for example
LUMAR = 8
LUMAG = 8
LUMAB = 8
