# love meter blocks activity
Create a love meter with the @boardname@
## ~avatar avatar
Welcome! This activity will help you create a love meter with the @boardname@. Let's get started!
## ~
Begin by registering an event with `on pin pressed` *P0* to know when someone is holding pin *P0* and pin *Gnd*.
```blocks
input.onPinPressed(TouchPin.P0, () => {
})
```
We are going to create a meter that displays a random number from *0* to *10*. We use *10* as `random number up to` returns a number between *0* and *n*.
```blocks
input.onPinPressed(TouchPin.P0, () => {
let x = Math.randomInt(10)
})
```
Finally, let's show that number on the @boardname@. You are registering an event handler that will execute on the @boardname@ whenever the user holds the GND pin with one hand, and presses pin 0 with the other hand, thus completing a circuit
```blocks
input.onPinPressed(TouchPin.P0, () => {
let x = Math.randomInt(10)
basic.showNumber(x)
})
```
