Using what you show here for now. I just got this from a friend the other day and had no idea what it did. Seems kind of interesting.

[@SurfingScratcher]

Awesome Terry! They are pretty cool little devices. :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH I HAVE A CODING ASSIGNMENT DUE NEXTWEEK AND HAVE NOT STARTED AND THIS VIDEO WAS SO HELPFUL THANKYOU FOR YOUR GOD LIKE EXISTENCE 🙂👍

I will be using TinkerCAD Circuits to code a virtual Microbit with my students. Thanks for the learning. I'm new to all of this :)

[@JohnBaglioTeacher]

Is there a "stamp"-like function with sprites on Makecode? I want to slowly fill the display with dots, adding one each time I shake the microbit. Could you point me in the right direction on this? Thanks!

[@SurfingScratcher]

Hi John, been a while since I've been in Makecode, but you could create an image and assign it to a variable. Alternatively, you can use list values to light up individual LEDs. A value of 0 means the LED for that position is off. A value of 1 means that the LED is on.

[@pixelgaming7261]

Are you still active on KZbin?

[@SurfingScratcher]

I'm still responding to comments! No videos planned at this stage, but that might change in the new year :)

[@pixelgaming7261]

@@SurfingScratcher Can you make new videos? I really love your content.

[@SurfingScratcher]

Yes, I'd love to get back to a place where I can begin releasing content again. It won't happen this year, but there is a strong chance I'll pick it back up again in the new year. What ideas or content would you love to see me make?

superb. that's working. yaa hoo

[@Ytuser2161]

thanks this helped!

[@SurfingScratcher]

Awesome, stoked to hear you found value. I love your username. I've been out foraging fungi and I've come across the ghost fungus (omphalotus nidiformis) and an inky cap called coprinus clomatis. You're username is a combination of the two in my mind :D

[@Ytuser2161]

Nice :)

hi, im 14yrs old.. Why do we need micro bit.. Can u tell me.. i hope that you are the best teacher for me...................

[@SurfingScratcher]

Hi! You don't actually need a micro:bit if you want to learn to code. However, they can be useful to help you interact with the real-world through 'sensing' it. It's a device that give you a taste of coding with a taste of electronics and engineering. It's well-priced for what it does compared to other devices within its category, too. Enjoy the journey!

[@pleasantasiaprivatelimited1926]

@@SurfingScratcher thank u.. but i need to learn from the beginning with out a micro bit device. ill follow your videos and learn.
