Zho:积木

積木是用來寫Scratch程式的拼圖塊形狀. 每塊積木可以像拼圖一樣跟另一塊積木連結，而每一個形狀（比如橢圓形、條形、半圓形，等等）只可以放在特定的地方. 一串積木可以被稱為｢程式｣.

There are twelve categories of blocks: Motion, Looks, Sound, Pen, Variables, List, Event, Control, Sensing, Operators, PicoBoard, and LEGO WeDo (although there are some other categories and blocks in some Scratch modifications). Only ten are shown in the Block Palette.

In total, there are eleven hat blocks, five C blocks, thirty-seven reporter blocks, thirteen Boolean blocks, two cap blocks and seventy-seven stack blocks.

積木形狀
There are six different block shapes: Hat, Stack, Boolean, Reporter, C and Cap.

半圓形


Hat blocks are the blocks that start every script. They are shaped with a rounded top and a bump at the bottom this is so you can only place blocks below them. There are 11 Hat blocks, six of which are in the Events category, one in the Control category, and four More hat blocks. Some examples of hat blocks are: 當 @greenflag 被點擊, or 當角色被點擊

條形


Stack blocks are the blocks that perform the main commands. They are shaped with a notch at the top and a bump on the bottom this is so blocks can be placed above and below them. There are 77 Stack blocks the most common block shape.

菱形


Boolean blocks are the conditions they are either true or false. It is like asking your friend: "Does 2 + 2 = 4?", and they would either tell you "Yes" or "No". With a hexagonal shape, there are 13 of these blocks.

橢圓形


Reporter blocks are the values. Reporter blocks can hold numbers and strings. It is like asking a friend, for example, "What is 2 + 2?", and they would answer "4". It is not just equations however, it can report a variable, for example, "What is your age?". They may answer: "15". Shaped with rounded edges, there are 37 of these blocks not counting the theoretically infinite amount of Reporter blocks that can be made for each variable and list.

半框形


C blocks are blocks that take the shape of "C's". Also known as "Wrap blocks", these blocks loop the blocks within the Cs or check if a condition is true. There are five C blocks, and they can be found in the Control category. C blocks can be bumped at the bottom, or capped.

平底形


Cap blocks are the blocks that end scripts. They are shaped with a notch at the top and a flat bottom this is so you cannot place any blocks below them. There are two Cap blocks which can both be found in the Control category.

Scratch 積木插入
The Scratch Block Plugin allows blocks and scripts to be used in the Scratch Forums and Scratch Wiki, as well as other sites with the included JavaScript. They look like this: 當 @greenflag 被點擊 定位到 x: (0) y: (0) // center the sprite for the first stamp 蓋章 重複無限次 定位到 x: (隨機取數 (-240) 到 (240)) y: (0) 蓋章 等待 (0.2) 秒 效果 [顏色 v] 改變 (隨機取數 (5) 到 (14)) end The current version that includes all blocks from Scratch 2.0 was made by blob8108.

編輯積木顏色


In the online Scratch 2.0 editor, by shift-clicking the Edit menu an option called "Edit block colors" appears. By selecting this, a menu will appears with a few color sliders and tools for modifying the block colors of a specific block category. Personalized colors can be saved to one's computer, but loading the colors currently does not work properly.

在其他程式語言
Scratch is one of the original languages ever to use blocks, inspiring other languages to inherit the idea. Scratch modifications contain many new blocks typically that are not present in Scratch. MIT, at which Scratch is designed, has also created other languages using blocks such as the MIT App Inventor. Stencyl is a highly-professional language that features an entire block interface for programming real-time apps and online games. Scratch Jr also has blocks which are even more friendly for younger children to understand.
