1GETTING STARTED
This chapter will get you started with your BBC micro:bit. It will also set the stage for the experiments and projects you’ll find in the following chapters. I’ll give our Mad Scientist (that’s you!) some ideas about what to do with your micro:bit, and I’ll help you start programming your micro:bit. You’ll learn how to use Blocks code and MicroPython.
Mad Scientists are generally too busy and distracted to type in huge amounts of code, so all the code used in this book is available to download. This chapter explains how to get and use the code.
