Abstract

This chapter covers an introduction to programming in the JavaScript Blocks Editor that includes programs for reading from button inputs, touch inputs, and the temperature, accelerometer, and compass sensors. JavaScript is a popular choice for beginners, with its easy-to-understand format and layout. It's also one of the most common languages underpinning the World Wide Web (WWW). In loop programming when the program reaches the end of its instructions or finished scrolling the message then it returns to the beginning of the loop. The BBC micro:bit has more inputs than simple buttons and touch-sensing pins. The Fruit Catcher game is relatively simple but still quite a hefty program. JavaScript Editor is open the web browser of an Internet-connected computer, type makecode.microbit.org into the address bar and press the Enter key, and then click on the Editor toggle in the center of the top menu bar to switch from JavaScript Blocks Editor mode to JavaScript Editor mode.
