                     When the program runs, the Micro:bit starts counting steps using its accelerometer
                     sensor. Each time  you  shake  or move  the  Micro:bit,  the  accelerometer  detects

                     the motion and increases the step count by one. The total number of steps is then
                     displayed on the LED display using numbers.
