Morse Chat

{Introducing Sky }

🐷 Meet Sky, the pig! Sky can only communicate using morse code.

Luckily, you can use your micro:bit with sound to talk to Sky 👋

{Setup}

► From the ||input:Input|| category in the toolbox, drag an ||input:on logo [pressed]|| container into to your workspace.
► From the ||radio:Radio|| category, get ||radio:radio send number [0]|| and snap it into your empty ||input:on logo [pressed]|| container.

input.onLogoEvent(TouchButtonEvent.Pressed, function () {
    radio.sendNumber(0)
})

{Sending different messages pt. 1}

► From ||input:Input||, grab another ||input:on logo [pressed]|| container and add it to your workspace.
💡 This container is greyed out because it matches another. Let’s change that!
► On the greyed-out ||input:on logo [pressed]|| container, click on the pressed dropdown and set it to ||input:long pressed||.

// @highlight
input.onLogoEvent(TouchButtonEvent.LongPressed, function () {
})
input.onLogoEvent(TouchButtonEvent.Pressed, function () {
    radio.sendNumber(0)
})

{Sending different messages pt. 2}

► From the ||radio:Radio|| category, get a ||radio:radio send number [0]|| block and snap it into your empty ||input:on logo [long pressed]|| container.
► Set the number to be 1.

input.onLogoEvent(TouchButtonEvent.LongPressed, function () {
    // @highlight
    radio.sendNumber(1)
})
input.onLogoEvent(TouchButtonEvent.Pressed, function () {
    radio.sendNumber(0)
})

{Receiving different messages}

To ensure Sky gets the right message, we will use an if then / else conditional statement.

► From ||radio:Radio||, find the ||radio:on radio received [receivedNumber]|| container and add it to your workspace.
► From ||logic:Logic||, grab an ||logic:if <true> then / else|| statement and snap it into your new ||radio:on radio received [receivedNumber]|| container.
► Go back to the ||logic:Logic|| category, grab ||logic:<[0] [=] [0]>||, and click it in to replace the ||logic:<true>|| argument in your ||logic:if <true> then / else|| statement.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    // @highlight
    if (0 == 0) {

    } else {

    }
})

{Conditioning on the input}

► From your ||radio:on radio received [receivedNumber]|| container, grab the receivedNumber input and drag out a copy.
► Use your copy of receivedNumber to replace the [0] on the left side of ||logic:<[0] [=] [0]>||.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    // @highlight
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {

    } else {

    }
})

{Displaying a message pt. 1}

► We want to display a dash if the logo is long pressed. From ||basic:Basic||, grab ||basic:show leds|| and snap it into the empty bottom container of your ||logic:if then / else|| statement.
► Turn on 3 LEDs in a row to be a dash: -

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
    } else {
        // @highlight
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . # # # .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
    }
})

{Playing a sound pt. 1}

► From the ||music:Music|| category, grab a ||music:play tone [Middle C] for [1 beat] [until done]|| block and snap it at the end of the bottom container in your ||logic:if then / else|| statement.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
    } else {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . # # # .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        // @highlight
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Whole)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)
    }
})

{Displaying a message pt. 2}

► We want to display a dot if the logo is pressed. From ||basic:Basic||, grab another ||basic:show leds|| and snap it into the top container of your ||logic:if then / else|| statement.
► Turn on a single LED to make a dot: .

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
        // @highlight
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . . # . .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
    } else {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . # # # .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Whole)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)
    }
})

{Playing a sound pt. 2}

► From the ||music:Music|| category, grab ||music:play tone [Middle C] for [1 beat] [until done]|| and snap it in at the end of the top container in your ||logic:if then / else|| statement.
► Dots are shorter than dashes! Set the tone to play for 1/4 beat.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . . # . .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        // @highlight
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Quarter)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)
    } else {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . # # # .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Whole)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)
    }
})

{Clearing the screens}

► From ||basic:Basic||, find ||basic:clear screen|| and snap it in at the very bottom of your ||radio:on radio received [receivedNumber]|| container.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . . # . .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Quarter)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)

    } else {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            . # # # .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Whole)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)

    }
    // @highlight
    basic.clearScreen()
})

{Testing in the simulator - Connect!}

Test what you’ve created. Remember to turn your sound on!

► Touch the gold micro:bit logo at the top of your micro:bit on the simulator. You’ll notice that a second micro:bit appears. This is the micro:bit for Sky 🐖
💡 If your screen is too small, you might not be able to see it.

radio.onReceivedNumber(function (receivedNumber) {
    if (receivedNumber == 0) {
        basic.showLeds(`
            . . . . .

            . . # . .
            . . . . .
            . . . . .
            `)
        music.play(music.tonePlayable(262, music.beat(BeatFraction.Quarter)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)

    } else {
