Show current date,time and temperature with Kidbright.

Hello everyone today I will be talking about another tutorial for kid bright. This one is about the current date, time and temperature. So let's just start first up you need a forever block. Next, a LED 16x8 scroll block and put a date block from the clock and put a wait LED matrix ready block underneath that. Next, do the same thing except put a time block at the scroll LED. Next, do the same thing ANOTHER time except put a temperature sensor in the scroll LED. Next, if you want you can put a delay in each of them, but I didn't do that. This is really easy to do really. Anyways that is all for today bye!

How to make a countdown number - Kidbright

Hello everyone! Today I will be talking about how to make a countdown number in Kid-Bright. You might not know what I will be talking about, I had to write about this so let's just start! First, go to the software and drag the forever block and get the set to block as well. You don't have to change it, but you can if you want. Get the LED 2 chars block and put the block that lets you print or tell what to say not literally, but just like tells you what it is trying to tell you or speak to you or something. So anyways you write what you want on the block and then get the if do block and the = block. Next, get the switch 1 block from the sensor topic and the number block from the math topic. Next, get the repeat (while) block from the loop topic. Get the = block and 1 number block and change it to 0 and the X block in Math. Get another set x to block and a + block from math and another x and number block. Get the LED 2 chars block and put ANOTHER x block and last, but not ...

When the sensor is dark, let the USB work

Hello everyone today I will be talking about another tutorial with Kid bright again so when it is dark you can turn on the light, fan or other stuff on. So let's begin first you need a forever block and a set x to block. You can change it. It doesn't really matter. So next you get the light level sensor from the sensor. Next, you put a LED 16x8 2 chars block underneath it. Next a delay 0.5 block underneath that. Now you get an if do else block from logic. In the if you get a = block and change it to a < symbol. Next, you get an X block at the front and a number block at the back you can change it to 30-50. I did 50 because why not? At do you get an LED 16x8 scroll block and you get a print block. You can change the word to when it is dark you want it to say this on the screen. Next, get a write USB (on) block from the I/O and next a delay block set to 3.5 or 3. At the else do the same thing except change the word in there for when it is day time you want it to say this w...

Coding a Coin Flipper - Kidbright

Hello everyone today I am doing another tutorial for kid bright again. I know I know it might be a bit boring, but my dad told me to write about it so yeah. Anyways the way I did this was my way there totally are other ways to make a coin flipper, but this was the easiest way I did, so let's just start. First, you get the set x to block you don't have to change it. , but you do have to get a random integer and you have to change it to 0-2. Why 2? I don't know my coding teacher from the coding course program used 2 and it worked. Next, is get the forever block and next is the if do else block. Put a = block then get an x block and a number block from math. So next you can literally do anything you want in the do of the if, but I just drew pictures. Next is get another LED drawing block again and do the just draw whatever you want for tails. When you are done it will look similar to the picture in the blog. Anyways that is all for today bye! One more thing you can actually ma...

How to animate a heart in Kidbright

Hello everyone today I will talk about animating a heart in KidBright. You might not understand what I am going to talk about and stuff, but my dad told me I just had to write about this. Even though I know most of my viewers aren't people who usually do coding, but hey why not talk about the topic that I HAD  to write about shall we? Anyways so let's just start. First up you go to the app and then start. Get the forever block and the LED drawing block and draw a heart. Then get the delay block and I recommend to change it to 0.1 because it will look a lot  smoother . Then keep on expanding it until it is just gone Then just make a smaller heart when the old heart is about to be gone from existence. Then when it is totally gone from existence you just make the new heart a bit bigger and that is it! You have a brand new heart that is not gone from existence, but then when it is like 1 or 2 seconds later it is going to be totally gone from existence again, but then...
