    BLOCKS IN MICRO:BIT

                     In Microsoft MakeCode, blocks are the visual elements used to create programs

                     in a simple, drag-and-drop interface. These blocks represent different commands,
                     actions and logic that help you build projects without writing complex code.

                     MakeCode blocks are grouped into categories based on their functions, making
                     it easy to drag and drop them to create your projects. Here's a breakdown of the
                     main block elements in Micro:bit:

                                                                        running.
