Introduction

I have a velleman P8055 (usb) (and a serial one as well but usb is easier for now to work with). I want to attach temperature sensors to it and collect some data. I went to the electronic store on college east of spadina and the guy there said that I should use an LM35. Thing is I said: I want a temperature sensor and he shows me an LM35 which has three pins
