Time
Running Time
Running time is how long the program has been running in milliseconds
TIP: 1 second is 1,000 milliseconds
Elapsed Time:
When Button Pressed
set now to running time
scroll now
\\where now is a user created variable

Time Stamps: the microbit has the ability to record the time using the advance: Time stamp button.
If we want to measure the elapsed time of between two events that occur while program is running we can use these time stamps and a little math.

on event1 (your choice)
set time1 to event time stamp
on event2 (also your choice but diff than event1)
set time2 to event time stamp
on start
set duration = 0
after event 2 occurs and time2 stored
duration= time2 - time1
