# On Button Pressed
|
||||
|
||||
Register an [event handler](/microbit/reference/event-handler) that will execute whenever an input button (A, B, or A and B together) is pressed during program execution. When [running code](/microbit/js/simulator) with this function in a web browser, click an on-screen input button - labelled A or B.
|
||||
|
||||
```sig
|
||||
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Example: count button clicks
|
||||
|
||||
This example counts how many times the left or right input button is pressed. Each time a button is pressed, the global count variable is increased by 1 and displayed on the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
let count = 0
|
||||
basic.showNumber(count)
|
||||
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
|
||||
count++;
|
||||
basic.showNumber(count);
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Example: roll a dice
|
||||
|
||||
This example generates a random number when you press the B input button, and then displays a random die image:
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
|
||||
let dice = Math.random(6)
|
||||
basic.showNumber(dice)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```

||||
