# Receive Number
|
|
|
|
> Note: This API has been deprecated! Use [on data packet received](/reference/radio/on-data-packet-received) instead.
|
|
|
|
Receives the next number sent by a @boardname@ in the same ``radio`` group.
|
|
|
|
```sig
|
|
radio.receiveNumber();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Returns
|
|
|
|
* the first [number](/reference/types/number) that the @boardname@ received. If it did not receive any numbers, this function will return `0`.
|
|
|
|
### Example: Simple number receiver
|
|
|
|
This example receives the number broadcasted another @boardname@ and shows it
|
|
as a bar graph.
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
radio.onDataReceived(() => {
|
|
led.plotBarGraph(radio.receiveNumber(), 1023);
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example: Light level receiver
|
|
|
|
This example shows the light level from the [light level sender example](/reference/radio/send-number)
|
|
as a number.
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
radio.setGroup(99)
|
|
basic.forever(() => {
|
|
let level = radio.receiveNumber()
|
|
basic.showNumber(level)
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example: Mailbot
|
|
|
|
This example receives the light level from the [light level sender example](/reference/radio/send-number)
|
|
and shows a text string like **ALERT** if the light level becomes much brighter.
|
|
To find when the mail arrives, you can put the light level sender in your mailbox and it will
|
|
tell you when someone opens the box. You can try this with a normal
|
|
box too, like a present for a friend.
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
radio.setGroup(99)
|
|
let max = 0
|
|
basic.forever(() => {
|
|
let level = radio.receiveNumber()
|
|
if (level > max) {
|
|
max = level
|
|
}
|
|
if (max > 10) {
|
|
basic.showString("ALERT")
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
