microPython-Help
>>>help()
Welcome to MicroPython on the micro:bit!
Try these commands:
display.scroll('Hello')
running_time()
sleep(1000)
button_a.is_pressed()
What do these commands do? Can you improve them? HINT: use the up and down
arrow keys to get your command history. Press the TAB key to auto-complete
unfinished words (so 'di' becomes 'display' after you press TAB). These
tricks save a lot of typing and look cool!
Explore:
Type 'help(something)' to find out about it. Type 'dir(something)' to see what
it can do. Type 'dir()' to see what stuff is available. For goodness sake,
don't type 'import this'.
Control commands:
CTRL-C -- stop a running program
CTRL-D -- on a blank line, do a soft reset of the micro:bit
CTRL-E -- enter paste mode, turning off auto-indent
Available modules: antigravity, array, collections, gc, love, math,
micropython, music, neopixel, os, radio, random, speech, struct, sys, this
