# Receive Number
|
||||
|
||||
The broadcast function. #docs #ble #radio
|
||||
|
||||
Reads the next radio packet as a number data packet.
|
||||
|
||||
## Important Security Consideration
|
||||
|
||||
The functions in the ``radio`` namespace allow the BBC micro:bit to communicate with other micro:bits.
|
||||
|
||||
This API does not contain any form of encryption, authentication or authorization. It's purpose is solely for use as a teaching aid to demonstrate how simple communications operates, and to provide a sandpit through which learning can take place.
|
||||
|
||||
For serious applications, BLE should be considered a substantially more secure alternative.

### Block Editor
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### KindScript
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
export function receiveNumber() : number
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Returns
|
||||
|
||||
* packet - a number received.
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
Broadcasts the value of ``acceleration`` x to other micro:bits.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
radio.onDataReceived(() => {
|
||||
led.plotBarGraph(radio.receiveNumber(), 1023)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
