A and B button confusion

It is unfortunate that the micro:bit and the display shield both have their own A and B buttons. We will distinguish the buttons in the documentation here as follows:

  • we will use d-A and d-B to refer to the A and B buttons on the display shield
  • we will use m-A and m-B to refer to the A and B buttons on the micro:bit
