On Pin Pressed
The On Pin Pressed event handler is a crucial feature for programming the micro:bit, allowing users to create interactive applications that respond to physical inputs. This handler activates when pins 0, 1, or 2 are touched in conjunction with the GND pin, enabling a variety of applications such as counting button presses or triggering events in response to user interactions.
Key Features:
- Event Handling: Start an event handler that executes code when a specific pin is pressed.
- Interactive Programming: Ideal for creating engaging projects that respond to user input.
- Safe Electrical Flow: Understand the concept of completing a circuit safely through the human body.
Use Cases:
- Educational Projects: Perfect for teaching programming concepts in a hands-on manner.
- Interactive Games: Use pin presses to control game mechanics or user interfaces.
- Data Collection: Count interactions or gather data based on user inputs.
