# Plot Acceleration
|
||||
|
||||
The ``||led:plot bar graph||`` uses the screen to display magnitude of a value (positive or negative).
|
||||
This is a great tool to understand the data returned by sensors... like the accelerometer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceleration
|
||||
|
||||
This example plots the acceleration in the ``x`` dimension on the LEDs.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
led.plotBarGraph(
|
||||
input.acceleration(Dimension.X),
|
||||
0
|
||||
)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Console
|
||||
|
||||
Click on the ``||Show Console||`` button to see a time chart of the value passed in the block.
|
||||
|
||||
## Maximum value
|
||||
|
||||
If you specify the maximum value, the block can do a better job at displaying the data.
|
||||
For example, we can tell the block that we don't expect values beyond 1000 mg.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
led.plotBarGraph(
|
||||
input.acceleration(Dimension.X),
|
||||
1000
|
||||
)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Other sensors
|
||||
|
||||
You can use this block for pretty much any data. Try it out! We pass the light level to play with the light sensor.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
led.plotBarGraph(
|
||||
input.lightLevel(),
|
||||
0
|
||||
)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
