Carrie Anne Philbin<\/a> has written a lovely new resource<\/a> for the Raspberry Pi Learning Resources website<\/a>. It uses the recently-launched SenseHAT<\/a> to create a Magic 8 Ball. You ask it a question and then\u00a0shake<\/em> the whole Pi and HAT (triggering the accelerometer) to get an answer on the LED display.
