Pin Is Pressed
Find whether the pin you say is pressed or not pressed.
If you hold the GND
pin with one hand and touch pin 0
, 1
, or 2
with the other,
a very small (safe) amount of electricity will flow through your body and back into
the @boardname@. This is called completing a circuit. It's like you're a big wire!
input.pinIsPressed(TouchPin.P0);
~hint
This function works best when the @boardname@ is using batteries for power, instead of the USB cable.

Parameters
- a string that holds the pin name (P0, P1, or P2)
returns
- a boolean that means whether the pin you say is pressed (
true
orfalse
)
Example
This program shows 1
if P0
is pressed, and 0
if P0
is not pressed:
basic.forever(() => {
if (input.pinIsPressed(TouchPin.P0)) {
basic.showNumber(1)
} else {
basic.showNumber(0)
}
})
