As long as Trump's personal wealth has increased 🤑 then the health of the world isn't as important 😔

Is it too early to start my Chr***mas shopping (for myself 😂).
As it's September I couldn't bring myself to type the C word! 🌲

What about the bizarre difference with watch duration for tablet users?! Are they an older demographic who are less likely to move to the next video?... or do people have a better idea? 🤔

Just watched @jdonwells.bsky.social YouTube on using @microbit.org micro:bit and servos. He pointed out the @pimoroni.com (discontinued) "Pinbetween" (pim457) pin breakout board,which I'd not seen before and looks great... so I bought two!

Yes! Me too. My daughter was most impressed... as was I. Particularly with the large Raspberry Pi ones 👏👏

I saw it as a round bale... so consider it a success

I did wonder why there was a photo of a chiller cabinet with your post... until I zoomed in 😂

You are not alone friend. Should we set up a support group?

I was impressed, so I had a look... but I'm more of a Micropython than C coder. But good work 😀

Glad you liked it.
Your starter code made the process a lot quicker and less taxing for my brain 👏👏

I've been distracted from making the Micro:Bit robot and I've created the classic Simon Game with a 5 button keypad; inspired by 101computing

I've not seen the Clue before. Is it the same form factor as the Micro:bit? It looks like a screen rather than a 5×5 matrix. Will the clue slim case fit a Micro:bit?
Thanks

Thanks, I'd found the main() on line 143; it was more the double underscore that was new to me.

Thanks... I think I just about understand the explanation 🤔

Morning Chris
Looking at the code, the only bit I'm unsure on is

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()

I can't see a reference to __name__ or __main__ elsewhere in the code at first (or 2nd or 3rd) glance.
Is it a method of a forever loop? Is so why the double underscore?
