# Touching
Find whether the sprite is touching another sprite you say.
Sprites are touching if they share the same LED.
```sig
let item: game.LedSprite = null;
item.isTouching(null);
```
## Parameters
* a **sprite** you are checking
* another **sprite** that might be touching the one you are checking
## Returns
`true` if the two sprites are touching.
## Example
This program creates two sprites called ``matter`` and ``antimatter``,
and then checks whether they are touching. If they are, there is an
explosion.
```blocks
let matter = game.createSprite(2, 2);
let antimatter = game.createSprite(2, 2);
if (matter.isTouching(antimatter)) {
basic.pause(500);
basic.clearScreen();
basic.showString("BOOM!");
}
```
