crocodile clips

The large holes at the bottom of the board are designed to attach alligator/crocodile clips. Register an event that will execute whenever the user attaches one side of the crocodile clip to the GND pin, then connects and disconnects the unattached side of the crocodile clip to pin 0, 1, or 2.

Example: on pin pressed with random numbers

This example displays a random number every time the crocodile clip holds GND then connects and disconnects the P0 pin. Each time the crocodile clip is firmly connected and disconnected from pin P0, the micro:bit will return a random Number between 0 and the parameter limit

input.onPinPressed(TouchPin.P0, () => {
    basic.showNumber(Math.random(10))
})
