 - Ensure that your SCL and SDA pins are selected properly in accordance with the Pico's pin table. These connect to the low voltage side of the translator with a 3.3V Reference from the board. The high voltage side gets a 5V reference from the VBUS pin of the Pico.
 - Finally, assure the I2C_NUM_ROWS and I2C_NUM_COLS are set properly!

 - lcd.putstr("Text goes here!")                     - Send a string of chars to the display IMPORTANT: Use this for printing a variable: lcd.putstr(str(Variable)) [Turns variable into string] 
 - lcd.show_cursor() / lcd.hide_cursor()             - Show / Hide the cursor of the lcd (White bar)
 - lcd.blink_cursor_on() / lcd.blink_cursor_off()    - Turn on / Off the blinking cursor upon printing
 - lcd.backlight_on() / lcd.backlight_off()          - Turn on / Off backlight of the LCD (Controlled by a small transistor on the backpack)
 - lcd.display_on() / lcd.display_off()              - Turn on / Off the display (Not backlight but the entire chip)
 - lcd.clear()                                       - Clear all chars or anything written to the display

 - lcd.custom_char(Num, bytearray([HEX chars])))     - Num can be any integer 0 - 8 (Writing to CGRAM locations) merely used for numbering. The HEX chars are simply made by using this link: https://maxpromer.github.io/LCD-Character-Creator/. It will provide a string of Hex charecters which can replace the "HEX chars" in the example command.
