BBC micro:bit – Magic 8 Ball

Posted on by Administrator Posted in BBC micro:bit, Computer Science, Solved Challenges

The user will think of a question such as:

  • Will it be snowing tomorrow?
  • Will I be a rock star one day?
  • Will my program work?

Then they will shake the micro-bit. The micro-bit will than randomly pick one of the following four answers:

  • No way!
  • Probably!
