  Project: Temperature and humidity detection with output on LCD with I2C Backpack
  Project Description:
  This sketch writes data from the DHT11/DHT22 sensor to an LCD display module.
  This sketch is for a 20x4 screen.

// GLOBAL VARIABLES
// Define the display size

/* INITIALIZE OBJECTS
 * Libraries usually follow an object-oriented approach that requires
 * an instance of the class to call its methods.
 */
/* 
 * All I2C components have an address, the default is usually 0x27
 * If that doesn't work, see this:https://playground.arduino.cc/Main/I2cScanner/
 * The init statement accepts the address and the number of columns and rows.
