    Understanding Sequencing and Timing

                     The micro:bit LED display consists of a 5 × 5 grid of LEDs that can be individually
                     controlled to create images and animations.

                     In  this  activity,  the  display  is used  to  show  a  beating  heart  animation  by
                     alternating between two images: a large heart and a small heart.

                     Image Display: The heart images are shown by lighting up specific LEDs in a
                     5x5 grid. Different patterns of LEDs create the large and small heart shapes.

                     Timing and Sequencing: The program switches between the heart images every

                     half second, controlled by a timer to keep the images changing at a steady rate.
                     Looping: An infinite loop in the program repeatedly shows the heart images in

                     sequence, making the heart animation appear to beat continuously.

                                                                                     Programming with Micro:bit   57
