PROGRAM 1. SLIDER NUMBER
This program displays a single digit between 0 and 9 depending on the position of
the slider. To try it out using Blockcode, visit this webpage in your browser.

Click on the Download link at the bottom of the window and copy the HEX file onto
your micro:bit. Once flashing is complete, you should see that the micro:bit's display
shows a number. When you slide the Slider back and forth you should see the
number change from 0 (left) to 9 (right).
By dividing the analog reading by 110, the maximum reading of 1023 becomes 9
(actually 9.3) but we use the round block to round this down to 9.
Here is the MicroPython version of this program. The program is called
slider_number.py.
from microbit import *
while True:
x = int(pin2.read_analog() / 110)
display.show(x)
