Week 3 - Coin Flipper, Dice & Fortune Teller

Coin Flipper, Dice & Fortune Teller

 

We used tutorials to program a micro:bit to simulate a coin toss.  When button 'A' is pressed, it will choose to display 'heads' or 'tails'.

Continuing to use the 'random' feature, we turned our micro:bits into dice!  When the micro:bit is shaken, it will select a random number from 1 to 6.

Finally, we programmed our micro:bit to be a 'Fortune Teller'.  When we asked it a question, we would press button 'A' and it would respond with one of three answers: Yes, No or Maybe.
