[Swlug] smbus on Pi Pico

[Rhys Sage]

The problem seems to be a lack of smbus in the insalled Python on the Pico (which uses MicroPython)

The BMP280 software works on Python on my 3B+

#import sys
#sys.path.append("lib/")
#import lib/smbus.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
import time
# Get I2C bus
bus = smbus.SMBus(1)
# BMP280 address, 0x76(118)
# Read data back from 0x88(136), 24 bytes
b1 = bus.read_i2c_block_data(0x76, 0x88, 24)
# Convert the data
# Temp coefficents

On my Pi Pico I get an error
