|
||

|
||
|
|
A variable that is available throughout your main function.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 2. If the rectangle below represents the BBC micro:bit, shade the area that shows the value of the variable count.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
let count = 0
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 3. If the rectangle below represents the BBC micro:bit, shade the areas that will be displayed after two button presses on Button A. Explain why that particular area is shaded.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
let count_ = 0
|
||
|
|
input.onButtonPressed("A", () => {
|
||
|
|
count_ = count_ + 1
|
||
|
|
basic.showNumber(count_, 100)
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
```
|

|

|
||
|
|
input.onButtonPressed("A", () => {
|
||
|
|
count_ = count_ + 1
|
||
