Screenshot of a MakeCode program for a BBC micro:bit that counts steps. The code sets a variable called “steps” to 0 when the program starts. Each time the micro:bit is shaken, the steps variable increases by 1 and the current total is displayed. When the steps count reaches 20, a smiley face LED pattern appears. Pressing button A displays the current number of steps.
