Programming
1）Modular programming and Python code programming

Modular programming is the use of graphics modules, through mouse-dragging and

parameter typing, you can complete a wealth of programming; Python code programming
is the use of Python code for complex programming.
When Python code is programmed, it also supports dragging program modules into a
specified line of code to complete the need for rapid programming.
2）Display the Python code

Showing python code is a very useful code-control feature when programming in modular;

Variable
Variables are important concepts and functions in programming that can be used to store
data information, For example, you can save a point-in-time sensor reading into a variable,
which can then be called in a program, or to simplify the program with variables to achieve
the countdown.

When the program becomes complex, we can take some of them out and put them in a
building block of our own definition, so that we only need to call the block, which also
does what we want. Defining blocks also makes it easier for us to understand the structure
of the program and facilitate later debugging.
