Receive Number

The broadcast function. #docs #ble #radio

Reads the next radio packet as a number data packet.

Important Security Consideration

The functions in the radio namespace allow the BBC micro:bit to communicate with other micro:bits.

This API does not contain any form of encryption, authentication or authorization. It's purpose is solely for use as a teaching aid to demonstrate how simple communications operates, and to provide a sandpit through which learning can take place.

For serious applications, BLE should be considered a substantially more secure alternative.
