Hi,
I'm new with the launchpad TM4C123G6HPM. I want to read an analog input (potentiometer resistance value) and display it on 16x2 LCD.. Can someone help me with the connection and code please ?

May I agree w/vendor's Amit - poster needs to narrow focus - demonstrate (some) time/effort investment in his/her project. (none currently reveals)
As to the Lcd panel - may I note that 99% of such "Character Lcds" employ the "Grandfather of all Char. Lcd Controllers" (HD44780) or one of the many clones! Only exceptions are the very newest character modules - which may have moved to I2C or an "SPI-like" interface - reducing the GPIO demands upon the MCU.
HD44780 style LCDs require a parallel interface - either 4 or 8 bits - along w/2 control signals. (8 bit is highly recommended - even experts are initially challenged by the 4 bit initialization & extended timing) A contrast pot is usually required - incorrect voltage level renders the Lcd unviewable...
One further suggestion - poster presents a highly specific "project need" (homework, anyone) and his, "newness w/LPad" - yet (any) reported familiarity w/the MCU/peripherals & coding sits silent. One crawls before walking - and reads the fine manuals (both MCU & LCD) & runs many code examples - prior to attempting homework projects!
