In a previous post  Proto-Pic board, Microbit and Micropython  I played with the  Proto-Pic micro:pixel 4x8 NeoPixel  board.  This post is just a short description of a quick play with making it flashing blocks of different colours across the board. The routine produces five random numbers (three to define the colours, one for which pixel is selected and the last for the delay each iteration). The idea of being - a pixel is selected, but so are the ones either side of it, each one has a different combination of the colour values, but only two of the pixels are turned off after the delay. from microbit import * import neopixel, random # Setup the Neopixel strip on pin0 with a length of 2 pixels np = neopixel.NeoPixel(pin0, 32) while True:     pxl=random.randint(1,30)     rd=random.randint(1,32)     gr=random.randint(1,32)     bl=random.randint(1,32)     t1=random.randint(10,100)   ...
