    A sequence of neopixels.

    :param ~microcontroller.Pin pin: The pin to output neopixel data on.
    :param int n: The number of neopixels in the chain
    :param int bpp: Bytes per pixel. 3 for RGB and 4 for RGBW pixels.
    :param float brightness: Brightness of the pixels between 0.0 and 1.0 where 1.0 is full
      brightness
    :param bool auto_write: True if the neopixels should immediately change when set. If False,
      `show` must be called explicitly.
    :param str pixel_order: Set the pixel color channel order. GRBW is set by default.

    Example for Circuit Playground Express:

    .. code-block:: python

        import neopixel
        from board import *

        RED = 0x100000 # (0x10, 0, 0) also works

        pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(NEOPIXEL, 10)
        for i in range(len(pixels)):
            pixels[i] = RED

    Example for Circuit Playground Express setting every other pixel red using a slice:

    .. code-block:: python

        import neopixel
        from board import *
        import time

        RED = 0x100000 # (0x10, 0, 0) also works

        # Using ``with`` ensures pixels are cleared after we're done.
        with neopixel.NeoPixel(NEOPIXEL, 10) as pixels:
            pixels[::2] = [RED] * (len(pixels) // 2)
            time.sleep(2)

    .. py:method:: NeoPixel.show()

        Shows the new colors on the pixels themselves if they haven't already
        been autowritten.

        The colors may or may not be showing after this function returns because
        it may be done asynchronously.

    .. py:method:: NeoPixel.fill(color)

        Colors all pixels the given ***color***.

    .. py:attribute:: brightness

        Overall brightness of the pixel (0 to 1.0)
