# The amazing coin flipper

Are you trying to choose whether to play soccer or go to the movies
|
|
instead, or which toppings to have on your pizza? Build a coin
|
|
flipping machine with the @boardname@ to choose for you!
|
|
|
|
### ~
|
|
|
|
Here are the blocks to make your coin flipper. When you press button
|
|
`B`, the coin flipper will show either `H` for heads or `T` for tails
|
|
on the LED screen.
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
|
|
if (Math.randomBoolean()) {
|
|
basic.showString("H");
|
|
} else {
|
|
basic.showString("T");
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
### ~hint
|
|
|
|
The ``pick random true or false`` block randomly tells the ``if``
|
|
block `true` or `false`. If the ``pick`` block picked `true`, the
|
|
``if`` block shows the letter `H`. Otherwise, it shows the letter `T`.
|
|
|
|
That's it!
|
|

### Keeping score
|
|

|
To keep track out of how many guesses you've won,
|
|
add these blocks to your coin flipper:
|
|
|
|
#### ~
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
|
|
game.addScore(1);
|
|
});
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.AB, () => {
|
|
basic.showNumber(game.score());
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
These blocks mean that if you press button `A`, you will add `1` to
|
|
your score, and if you press `A` and `B` together, the @boardname@ will
|
|
show your score.
|
|
|
|
When you're done, your coin flipping program should look like this:
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
|
|
if (Math.randomBoolean()) {
|
|
basic.showString("H");
|
|
} else {
|
|
basic.showString("T");
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
|
|
game.addScore(1);
|
|
});
|
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.AB, () => {
|
|
basic.showNumber(game.score());
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Flip until your thumbs get tired!
