Description: ev3-python3
        =============
        
        Use python3 to program your LEGO Mindstorms EV3. The program runs on the local host
        and sends direct commands to the EV3 device. It communicates via bluetooth, wifi or USB.
        I wrote a `blog <http://ev3directcommands.blogspot.com>`_ about this code.
        
        There is no need to boot the EV3 device from a SD Card or manipulate
        its software. You can use it as it is, the EV3 is designed to execute
        commands which come from outside.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        ::
        
          python3 -m pip install --user ev3_dc
                     
        Examples
        --------
        
        Writing and sending direct commands
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        This program communicates via USB with an EV3 device (mac-address:
        '00:16:53:42:2B:99', replace it by the the mac-address of your EV3)
        and plays a tone with a frequency of 440 Hz for a duration of 1 sec.
        
        ::
        
          #!/usr/bin/env python3
          
          import ev3_dc as ev3
          
          my_ev3 = ev3.EV3(protocol=ev3.USB, host='00:16:53:42:2B:99')
          my_ev3.verbosity = 1
          ops = b''.join((
              ev3.opSound,
              ev3.TONE,
              ev3.LCX(1),  # VOLUME
              ev3.LCX(440),  # FREQUENCY
              ev3.LCX(1000),  # DURATION
          ))
          my_ev3.send_direct_cmd(ops)
        
        The output shows the direct command, which was sent to the EV3 device::
        
          11:48:31.188008 Sent 0x|0E:00|2A:00|80|00:00|94:01:01:82:B8:01:82:E8:03|
        
        Subclasses of EV3 with comfortable APIs
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Class **Jukebox**  has a method **play_tone**,
        which also plays tones:
        
        ::
        
          #!/usr/bin/env python3
        
          import ev3_dc as ev3
        
          jukebox = ev3.Jukebox(protocol=ev3.BLUETOOTH, host='00:16:53:42:2B:99')
          jukebox.verbosity = 1
          jukebox.play_tone("a'", duration=1)
        
        This program does the very same thing via bluetooth! Before you can
        run it, you need to pair the the two devices (the computer, that
        executes the program and the EV3 brick). The output::
