I saved some money by buying a kit that included most of the parts. I confirmed that this setup works and have already completed assignment 0 with it.

1. Raspberry Pi 3: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CD5VC92

2. CP2102 USB TTL adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072K3Z3TL

3. Breadboard/Cables/LEDs/Resistors kit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IH4VJRI

4. microSD card: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B1AR50

Note that I didn't need a microSD adapter since my laptop already has a SD card port, and the card linked has a microSD-to-SD adapter. Overall, this was $64 vs $98 for the above parts, and it all had free one-day shipping.

Would you mind answering a couple of questions for me via email or signal about assignment 0? Specifically related to phase3/phase4.
