We have this group project consisting in Arduinos. After a first intruduction, I found it to be quite similar to C/C++. But since the group manager won't allow us to take them home, I'm stuck with only learning codes, and not using them. My question is: Is there any 3-D software, or anything similar, that if i enter a sketch, it tells you what happened. Thank you in advance.

Proteus VSM will allow you to simulate the AVR at the heart of the Arduino as well as a wide variety of peripherals, but at its price point you'll probably find it much cheaper to just buy a real AVR MCU or module, ISP programmer, breadboard, and components instead.
