So, to recap: the `forever` block makes sure our code runs forever. The BBC micro:bit checks if the user is pressing the left button, if the user is not then the “Press the button!” message will scroll across the LEDs. If the user is pressing the button then the “hello, world!” message will scroll across the screen. Check this in the simulator or attach the BBC micro:bit to the computer then click **Download** to send the code onto the BBC micro:bit.

Variables are things that are remembered by the BBC micro:bit. Variables can take a few formats and can have functions applied to them. For example, we could create a string, which is text. Or we could create a calculator that stores whichever number the user inputs as an integer, or whole number.

The BBC micro:bit checks how hot its CPU (main computer chip) is.
The @boardname@ checks how hot its CPU (main computer chip) is.
Because the micro:bit does not usually get very hot, the temperature of the CPU
is usually close to the temperature of wherever you are.
The micro:bit might warm up a little if you make it work hard, though!
