Ever wondered how a mobile phonescreen works? Or how your PlayStation knows what to do when you press buttons on the controller? Or maybe how your iPad changes its screen when you put it on its side? Well, the Micro:bit lets us explore how these devices work and teaches us how to create our very own computer programmes.
