Program with blocks
12Blocks is a tool that let’s you create programs by stacking blocks together. A library of over
100 powerful blocks let's you quickly build games, robots, and more. Just assemble blocks onto
the worksheet and then debug your program with built-in graphical tools. 12Blocks is ideal for
classrooms, students, hobbyists and professionals who want to quickly and easily build projects
with the PICAXE.

User functions and variables
When you drag the myfunction start block to the worksheet, you can replace the
myfunction parameter with a name of your function. This will create a new
block in the functions section of the library- which you can use to call your new function.
Variables are used to store the value of a single element.
The vars section of the library contain blocks to set, change, get, and edit a variable.
