    Block-Based Programming

                     Block-based programming is a visual way of coding where you create programs
                     by dragging and dropping blocks that represent different commands and actions.

                     Instead  of writing  code  with  words and  symbols,  you  use  these  colourful blocks
                     to build your program. This approach makes coding easy to understand and fun,

                     especially for beginners, as it doesn't require knowledge of complex syntax.
                     In block-based  programming,  each  block  represents  an instruction  such  as

                     displaying a message, performing a calculation or controlling a device. This type of
                     programming is great for learning basic coding concepts because it lets you to focus
                     on the logic of your program without worrying about the rules of a programming

                     language.
                     Block-based programming is a fun and easy way to start coding. Let’s understand

                     the key features of block-based programming:

                         Block-based programming uses colourful blocks that you can drag and drop to
                        create code.

                         It is very easy to use because the blocks fit together like puzzle pieces.
                         Block-based programming is perfect for beginners, as it is simple and fun to

                        start with.
                         In block-based programming, there are no spelling or punctuation errors because

                        the blocks fit together correctly.

                         You can create simple games, animations and robots using blocks programming.
                         Block-based programming is quick to learn and helps you start coding right away.

                         Blocks programming is very fun and interactive, giving you instant results as you
                        build your projects.

                     Text-Based Programming

                     Text-based  programming is a method  of  coding  where  you  write instructions
                     using a specific words, symbols and syntax from a programming language. Unlike

                     block-based programming, where you drag and drop blocks, you type out the code
                     in a text editor. This type of programming is more flexible and powerful, allowing
                     you to create complex programs, but it requires an understanding the rules and

                     structure of the language.

                     You can switch from block-based programming to text-based programming by
                     selecting the Python editor, where you can write and edit the code manually.

                                                                                         Coding with Micro:Bit
                                                                                                                        43
