Study Notes
Programming a micro:bit to display "Hello!"
- The steps involve using a graphical programming environment, where blocks are snapped together to create a program.
- The first step involves selecting a category ([Basic]) and then selecting a specific block ([show string]).
- The second step involves placing the [show string] block within the [on start] slot.
- This indicates the code block will execute when the micro:bit starts.
- This program will display "Hello!" on the micro:bit screen when the device is powered on.
