Compile!

In coding, compiling is the action which translates the code readable by humans, into that suitable for machines (computers, phones, the micro:bit, etc.).

Once you click on ‘Compile’ the browser will create a .hex file (probably in your download folder). Please connect your micro:bit and copy the new file onto it (ask for help, if you need).

The code is in the machine but…wait…THERE ARE NO HEADPHONEEEEEEESS!!! How do we connect? Here’s how (courtesy of the BBC’s website)
