Ilana and Gabe's Code Learning

I learned a bit more about how to randomize stuff and an easy way to stick variables into text in python.

I wish I knew more about lists of words and how to pick a random word from a list in a more efficient way then choosing a number from 0 to the most things in the list minus one and then picking that number from the list because that was very inefficient...

Ilana and Lucy Muni Multi Bus Code

Me and Lucy made some code that cycles through two different times that a bus could arrive. This was difficult because for a while it was unclear to us how many buses there were in the list that we were pulling from but we figured out that there were only two. To solve this, we applied our knowledge that there were only two by using an if statement that only cycles through two times as opposed to the four that we originally had.

Unsoldered Custom Circuit Board

Here is the circuitboard that me and Coleton made!

Code

I made a sort of toggle switch for my toilet that I didn't end up using. When the button is pressed, it turns the speaker on until it is pressed again, at which point it turns the speaker off. It would theoretically attach to the button that imbedded in my speaker that is clicked by the lid of my speaker. It was difficult to make the button actually worked so I had to add Button.pull = digitalio.Pull.UP which tells the button that it is explicitly not being pressed until it is pressed. I learned how difficult it is to make even the simplest of digital devices, and how many problems can arise. I also learned why its important to test things because I could have realized much sooner that this was unnecesary if I had just printed my whole toilet before making my digital project.
