Instructions

Move the slider to change the delay time of the binary counter.

Description

Reflection I wanted to recreate an old Arduino project I once assembled that acted as a binary counter. It included 8 LEDs that represented the state of an byte, or 8-bit value, in memory. The challenge for this project is that there are no bitwise operators (that I'm aware of) in Scratch. In order to simulate changing of the bits, I used a list so that each element of the list represents a bit. Building this 8-bit memory, along with the supporting functions, took most of the time. Update: I went ahead a fixed the things I would have done if I had more time. Mostly refactoring and reorganizing. This involved rearranging and deleting unnecessary blocks, and separating and organizing the logic within the 4 sprites.
