Acceleration
Get the acceleration value (milli g-force), in one of three specified dimensions.
Find the acceleration of the @boardname@ (how fast it is speeding up or slowing down).
input.acceleration(Dimension.X);
~hint
You measure acceleration with the milli-g, which is 1/1000 of a g. A g is as much acceleration as you get from Earth's gravity.

Parameters
dimension
means which direction you are checking for acceleration, eitherDimension.X
(left and right),Dimension.Y
(forward and backward), orDimension.Z
(up and down)
Returns
- a number that means the amount of acceleration. When the @boardname@ is lying flat on a surface with the screen pointing up,
x
is0
,y
is0
, andz
is-1023
.
Example: bar chart
This example shows the acceleration of the @boardname@ with a bar graph.
basic.forever(() => {
led.plotBarGraph(input.acceleration(Dimension.X), 1023)
})
