Finch/micro:bit Knowledge Check

What are some of the features of the micro:bit?

• Can be programmed in blocks, javascript, or python.

• Has multiple button inputs.

• Has multiple sensor inputs.

• Has multiple outputs.

• All of the above.

What sensors are built into the Finch robot, separate from the micro:bit? (Select two.)

• Distance sensor

• Sound sensor

• Line sensor

• Compass

Which of the following blocks of code will just turn on the Finch's motors and move on to the next block of code?

• 
• 

In a while loop, what's the difference between "continue" and "break"?

• Continue sends us to the next part of the code, while break gives an error message

• Continue exits the loop, while break restarts the loop

• Break exits the loop, while continue restarts the whole program

• Break exits the loop, while continue restarts the loop

When trying to send messages to other micro:bits, what's the first thing that every micro:bit has to have in order for this function to work?

• It must have a "radio received" function.

• They must all be set to the same radio group number.

• They must all be set to send the same message.

• They must all be tuned in to 100.3 MHz.

• Processor

• Compass

• Push Button A and B

• Battery Connector

What is robotics?

• the machine
• movement
• the design, construction and operation of a robot
• imitating human actions

What is a microcontroller?

• A type of computer bug

• A software program

• A small computer on a single integrated circuit

• A type of processor

A set of instructions that tells a computer what to do to accomplish a particular task is called:

• Programming language
• Software
• An application
• A computer program

When will the instructions in the "on start" block execute?

• Every tick

• At the end of the program

• When the device is first turned on

• When button A is pressed
