Updated micro:bot Kit Experiment Guide!
We updated some code for the micro:bot kit to help debug and interpret line following sensor readings using the MakeCode Console.
Based on your feedback, we have updated the micro:bot kit experiment guide!
You'll find updated code for experiments two and three with an option to output serial data to the MakeCode Console. This is useful when you need to debug and interpret sensor readings when using a line following sensor(s) on different surfaces. If you choose to view the serial output, we include a few highlighted graphs to explain what is going on on different surfaces.

Experiment three is now broken up into two parts. We'll try to follow a straight line made from black electrical tape and stop when we fail to see it. Then we'll attempt to follow a simple polygon track.
If you have not gotten a kit yet, make sure to get one today! Otherwise, be sure to check out the updates in the micro:bot kit experiment guide!
