  • In LOGIC, go to and drag Add Value into the interval event.
  • Change the variable to the left of the equals sign from my_var to time.
  • Click Run to see our scatter plot graph points farther along the x axis.

microbit = codesters.Microbit() microbit.show_string("hello") data = microbit.get_temp() microbit.show_number(data) data_list = [] time_list = [] my_display = codesters.ScatterPlot(time_list, data_list) time = 0 def interval(): data = microbit.get_temp() data_list.append(data) global time time_list.append(time) my_display.update(time_list, data_list) stage.event_interval(interval, 2)
