Use this activity document to guide your work in the [compass tutorial](/lessons/compass/activity).
|
|
|
|
Answer the questions while completing the tutorial. Pay attention to the dialogues!
|
|
|
|
## 1. What is the purpose of the 'compass heading' block?
|
|
|
|
Gets the compass heading of the @boardname@ in degrees
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2. Write the code that stores the compass heading into a local variable called 'degrees'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
let degrees = input.compassHeading()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 3. Write the 'If statement' that will check if the device is mostly pointing North. Display 'N' on the @boardname@
|
|
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
let degrees = input.compassHeading()
|
|
if (degrees < 45 || degrees > 315) {
|
|
basic.showString("N", 150)
|
|
}
|
|
```
