2. Music built in melodies

See: https://microbit-micropython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/music.html

2.1. Built in music

There are built-in melodies that can be found by typing music.

Melodies can be played using music.play(melody) where the melody is music. and a melody name in capitals.

from microbit import *
import music

music.play(music.POWER_UP)

The code below uses a for-loop to loop through each melody in a given melodies_list and play it.

from microbit import *
import music

melodies_list = [music.DADADADUM, music.POWER_DOWN]
for melody in melodies_list:
    music.play(melody)

2.2. All Built in melodies

For a list of built-in melodies see: https://microbit-micropython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/music.html
The code below plays all the melodies.
the A-button can be used to stop all sounds by first breaking out of the for loop, then the while True loop.

from microbit import *
import music

built_in_tunes = [music.DADADADUM, music.ENTERTAINER, music.PRELUDE,
                  music.ODE, music.NYAN, music.RINGTONE, music.FUNK, music.BLUES,
                  music.BIRTHDAY, music.WEDDING, music.FUNERAL, music.PUNCHLINE,
                  music.PYTHON, music.BADDY, music.CHASE, music.BA_DING,
                  music.WAWAWAWAA, music.JUMP_UP, music.JUMP_DOWN, music.POWER_UP,
                  music.POWER_DOWN]

while True:
    for tune in built_in_tunes:
        music.play(tune)
        sleep(1000)
        if button_a.is_pressed():
            break
    if button_a.is_pressed():
        break

Tasks

Play any 3 melodies using a list.
Use the choice function to randomly pick melodies from a melody list. See: `<https://www.w3schools.com/python/ref_random_choice.asp

2.3. Melody notes

The notes for each built in melody are below.
