What is the best explanation of why it is important to plan a graphic design or a game before you start creating it?
When you create something and submit it to a client, it is important that you give them your planning documents as well as the final product. They may be unhappy if you do not, regardless of how good the final product is.
If you plan your design, you are less likely to run into problems such as forgetting to save, being unsure how to use the software and copyright issues when you begin creating it.
Planning lets you think through the design carefully before working out how to use the software to create it. It allows you to make adjustments based on feedback easily.

What is the best description of what the above program is supposed to do?
When heads or tails is tossed, the micro:bit shakes or vibrates.
When the micro:bit is shaken, it randomly shows either "Heads" or "Tails" on its LEDs.
Depending on whether heads or tails is tossed, it randomly either shakes or does not shake the micro:bit.
When the micro:bit is shaken, it swaps between showing "Heads" or "Tails" on its LEDs .
The first time the micro:bit is shaken, it shows "Heads" on its LEDs; after the first time, it shows "Tails".
The program above does not actually work as intended. How should this be fixed?
Instead of "show string", it should have "show LEDs" and have the right patterns selected with ticks.
Instead of "pick random 0 to 2", it should say "pick random 0 to 3".
Instead of "pick random 0 to 2", it should say "pick random 0 to 1".
Instead of "if toss = 0", it should say "if toss = 2".
"Heads" and "Tails" should be the other way around.
