Simple Dice Simulator with Sound & LED Rolling Animation

Platform: BBC micro:bit (Python)
Objective: Create a digital dice that animates, plays sound (V2), and displays a final random number from 1–6 when shaken.

Specification Sheet

Feature	Description
Project Name	Animated Dice Simulator
Input	Shake gesture detected by the accelerometer
Output	LED animation followed by a final dice number (1–6)
Sound Output (V2)	Rolling sound during animation and a confirmation tone after the final roll
Libraries Used	`microbit`, `random`, `music`
Dice Range	1–6 (inclusive)
Animation	Rapid flashing of random numbers on the LED display before the final result
Goal	Simulate a realistic dice roll using movement, animation, and sound.

Pseudocode

START

IMPORT microbit, random, music

LOOP forever:
    IF device detects shake:
        Play rolling sound
        REPEAT animation loop 6 times:
            Pick a random number 1–6
            Display the number briefly
            Pause a short time
        END REPEAT

        Generate final random number 1–6
        Display final number
        Play confirmation tone
        Pause to show result

END LOOP

Python Code (micro:bit)

from microbit import *
import random
import music

while True:
    if accelerometer.was_gesture("shake"):

        # Play rolling sound (V2 only—safe to run on V1)
        music.play(["C4:2", "D4:2", "E4:2", "F4:2"], wait=False)
