Let's start a bit of scratch
Hi... Today we will start a bit of scratch. We will only be doing the basics but it's a good start.
Here's a video that you can watch:
Here is a summary of what is in the video:
Categorie | Color | Description |
---|---|---|
Motion | Blue | The motion categorie is a categorie that we could also call action blocks. |
Looks | Purple | The looks categorie is a categorie where you can style some sprites. Ex : change color, change syze etc... |
Sound | Purplish | The sound categorie is a categorie where you can find blocks that control the sound. Ex : volume, change music etc... |
Events | Yellow | The events categorie contains mostly blocks that start a script. Most of the blocks are the lumped shaped blocks. |
Control | Orangie | The control categorie controls like it name says. It can for example tell a part of a script to run forever. Most of the control blocks are C-shaped. |
Sensing | Dodjer blue | The sensing categorie senses. It for example can sense when the mouse is over the sprite. |
Operators | Green | The operators categorie can calculate or check some values. It for example can calculate 6x6=36. |
Variables | Orange | The variables categorie is a categorie where you make a variable (you can make as much variables as you like). Variables keep information you tell them to keep. In the variables categorie you can also make lists. Lists are for a simple explanation a list of a lot of variables which you can make. |
My blocks | Pink | This categorie is a categorie where you make your own blocks. The best time to use them is when you've got a long script to make which you need to make a lot of times. |
Extensions | No special color | Extensions are only availble if your programming on the online scratch and not the offline one. Example's of extensions : text to speech, translation etc... |
