Project: Random Animal
⛑️Create a game which randomly chooses and displays the name of an animal
Summary of this episode
👍Setting up a text array
👍Understanding how information is addressed in an array with indexes
👍Using a variable to automatically know the length of an array (because the length may change, e.g. add more animal names in our case)

Equipment used here
🛠️micro:bit V1
🛠️USB type A to micro USB
🛠️Internet connected device with USB type A socket
These projects will:
🌍use JUST a micro:bit (or two), the connecting cable and a computer (usually internet connected, although you can download an app)
🌍use a micro:bit version 1 (so they'll work on all micro:bits)
🌍use the block code (rather than the JavaScript or Python editors)
