Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Users who are new to hardware will have no idea what D0 and A0 refer to. And the Chibi board doesn't even have analog and digital labels on I/O. The hardware is labeled by number only. Though it is helpful for advanced Chibi users to learn about analog and digital signals, the "lights" and "sensors" code is the first that newbies use. I don't think it is helpful to label these as D and A. It's too confusing!

Describe the solution you'd like Change D# and A# in the "Lights" and "Sensors" sections to just #. Then they will be labeled in the same way as the hardware, which is less confusing.

Introducing digital and analog in advanced might still be a good idea though.
