Converting Length to Meters and Centimeters With Scratch Program

 We will make an example of Converting the Entered Length Measure to Meters and Centimeters with Scratch.

Converting Length to Meters and Centimeters With Scratch Program

For this sample application we made with the Scratch program, first of all, we create data from the variables menu to hold the data in meters and centimeters that will be created as a result of the process. Since I will create speech sprite in the program, I am adding a sprite.

Game Making with Scratch

Code part:

When the green flag is clicked, I first set 0 to the meter, centimeter and given length measurement. If we do not set 0, if the program has been used before, the numbers of the old data will appear in the first run. After writing the code that makes the data 0, we add the speech sprite that appear in the sprite from the looks menu. And we use the ask and wait command from the sensing menu to get the user's length measurement. After taking the length measurement in centimeters from the user, he came to convert it to meters and centimeters with mathematical operations and commands. The length unit entered in detection is kept in the response in the sensing menu. We equate these numbers retained in this entered response to the "Given Length" data we created earlier. Thus, we see the length measure entered by the person on the screen. To convert this length measure to meters, we follow the method below. We use the roll down command from the operator menu. We add the division command from the same menu to the space part. We enter the answer (variable holding the length measure entered by this user) divided by 100 from the detection menu of the empty part of the division command on the left. We add them to the meter variable. Thus, when the entered measure is divided by 100, we round the quotient and assign it to the meter variable.

In centimeters; When we subtract the result from the answer (the variable that holds the length measure entered by this user) by multiplying the meter with 100, the result is centimeters. For this, we use the remove operation command from the Process menu. We add the answer to the left space and the multiplication command to the right space. We write the meter variable in the multiplication command and 100 manually in the other. We put these codes into the centimeter variable. Thus, we convert the entered length measurement to meters and centimeters.

How to Make Countdown a Maze Game on Scratch

  We will make a countdown maze game example with Scratch. For the countdown maze game example we will make with Scratch, we upload the maze picture we downloaded to our computer from the scene section to the scratch program. Then we select the object that we will move in the maze section from the choose a sprite section and add it to our scene. We bring the object to be moved to the red point, which is the starting point. First of all, we create a variable named Duration to calculate the elapsed time in the maze from the "Variables" menu When you click the green flag, set the duration variable to 40. Our goal is to get the ball to the finish line in 40 seconds. If our ball object to move, we give the x and y coordinates to go to the red starting point. Our object will not move only once. First of all, we add the "Forever" code from the "Control" menu so that it moves every time we press the arrow key. Now it's time to check which direction key is pres...

Blinking LED with Mblock and Arduino

  We will blink the led with the mblock program. The list of materials that will be used in our led circuit before moving on to the codes of the application we will make with the Mblock program: 1-Arduino Uno 2-BreadBoard 3-LED 4-220Ω Resistor 5-Jumper Cables We need supplies. We add a 220 ohm resistor to the long leg of the Led that we added to our breadboard. We connect one leg of the resistor with a jumper cable to the digital pin 8 of our ardunio uno material (You can connect your jumper cable to any digital pin you want between 2-13). The circuit diagram is below. Now let's come to our codes in mBlock; In the Mblock program, we add the Arduino program starter code from the Robots menu. After adding the forever from the control menu, we add the code to whichever digital pin we connected our led to the inside of the "Robots menu ... we add the code to make the pin low. We write 8 because I connect it to digital pin 8. We do not light our led with the code of s...
