Code

The pedometer knows how to thoroughly trace and measure your steps. The following steps will instruct you on ways to measure the number of calories burned and will provide you with tips on weight loss. To measure these steps, the pedometer must be coded perfectly. This will give the most accurate information and will track other movements too. My micro-bit pedometer is as accurate as it could be. Our task was to code the most accurate pedometer possible. I have developed a code that can work as well as a Fit-bit or an apple watch pedometer. During the assignment, I’ve learned some new codes and found that mistakes are ok. I could have spent hours, days, weeks, or years working on this code but no matter how much time you spend on a project there is always room for improvement.

Turtle Art

We were assigned to make some kind of creative art for this project so I thought to make a rainbow which wasn’t as easy as I thought. The first thing I did was make the colors which was the easiest part of all. All I had to do was copy the code and change the color. Here is the basic set up code I used for the color.

Making the clouds was the thing that I least expected to be the hardest part. It was very complicated because the natural looks of a cloud are very unpredictable. Just a little gush of wind can completely change a look to a cloud. So I did a little research and decided to do this type of cloud.

Getting the shape and size perfect for the cloud to match my rainbow was a complex process. With trial and error, I was able to get the color perfected. The next step was creating six large dots that will connect to make a cloud. This code required me to lift up and put down the drawing pen which made this part hard. Learning about block codes was a great experience. I truly gained from this experience and it will help me in future assignments.
