Dance steps

1. korak: Napravi

Što je to?

Use count-controlled loops and a sequence to help create a dance routine project on your BBC micro:bit. You can use the project alone or with friends.

Ova dva videa prikazuju što ćeš napraviti i kojim kodom:

Kako to radi

• The program starts when you press button A.
• Arrows appear on the micro:bit’s LED display, which tell you how to dance – step left then right, put your hands up in the air, then point down to the floor.
• If you are using the project in a group, everyone should press button A on their micro:bits at the same time, so that you start the dance routine at the same time and remain in sync.
• After showing each image, the program pauses for a second (1000 milliseconds) before showing the next image. The pause helps everyone to keep in time.
• The sequence of dance moves repeats four times then stops. The sequence is kept going using a count-controlled loop. Count-controlled loops repeat instructions a set number of times.
• Using loops to keep things happening is an important idea in computer programming. This is also called iteration. 
• When the routine is finished, the micro:bit’s LED display is cleared.

Što ti treba

• micro:bit (ili MakeCode simulator)
• Uređivač za MakeCode
• komplet baterija (preporučeno)
• LED planning sheet (optional)

• Make instructions for other dance sequences to appear when you use other inputs such as pressing button B or shaking the micro:bit.
• Change the length of the pauses to make the program run in time with your favourite song.
• Use this project alongside the step counter project to monitor how well you dance.
