# transformers challenges
Coding challenges for the transformers tutorial. #docs
## Before we get started
Complete the following guided tutorial:
* [tutorial](/microbit/lessons/transformers/tutorial)
At the end of the tutorial, click `keep editing`. Your code should look like this:
```
let inital = 5
input.onButtonPressed("A", () => {
let doubled1 = double(initial)
basic.showNumber(doubled1, 150) // ***
})
```
### Challenge 1
Create a new function called `square` that returns the square of the number passed into the function.
(Squaring means that you multiply the number by itself)
```
export function square(n: number) : number {
let num: number
return n * n
return num
}
```
### Challenge 2
### @video td/videos/transformers-2
Add a condition for when button `B` is pressed. We will use this condition in the last challenge.
```
initial = 5
input.onButtonPressed("A", () => {
let doubled = double(initial)
basic.showNumber(doubled, 150)
})
input.onButtonPressed("B", () => {
}) // ***
```
**Challenge 3**
When the `B` button is pressed, display the square of the initial value. Use the function `square`. You should get the value 25.
