## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
Learn how to creating **conditionals**, `if condition do` to conditionally run code depending on whether a condition is true or not. We will be learning how to create a fortune telling app using local variable and conditionals (If), input on shake as well as simple commands, such as show string, show number, and clear screen.
## Documentation
```docs
if (true) {
}
Math.random(3)
input.onGesture(Gesture.Shake, () => {
})
basic.showNumber(7)
basic.clearScreen()
basic.showString("Hello!")
```
## Objectives
* learn how to show a string on the LED screen

* learn how to use the input on shake
* learn how to learn how to create a local variable to store data so that you can use it later in your code
* learn how to learn how to return a random number
* learn how to learn how to conditionally run code depending on whether a condition is true or not
