Training a Neuron using Scratch

In a previous post http://compuationalthinking.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/artificial-neuron-in-scratch.html I used Scratch to build a working artificial neuron.

In this post, the training of a neuron all written in Scratch is tackled. The video shows it action and you can have a go at using the software yourself at the end of the post. The Scratch code can be found at https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/132915502/

Artificial Neuron in Scratch

Instructions:

• Set the inputs by pressing the buttons marked input 1 and input 2 (Red is off(False or 0) and Green is on(True or 1))
• Change the weights by changing weights 1 to 3, wx goes with input x and weight 3 is the bias.
• To activate the neuron you need to click on the the yellow ball ('the neuron').

The video below show it in action and explains the code.
