We make sure that we measure the current temperature only once per second.
Whenever we determine the current temperature, we calculate the new upper
Y position of the thermometer’s scale in line 6. The
map_float
function maps
the current temperature to a value on our thermometer’s scale.
Then we use the
draw_rect
method (which draws a rectangle on the screen)
twice. The first call erases the thermometer’s scale completely. This is neces-
sary because the temperature can rise or fall. We could clear and redraw the
whole screen every time, but that would be overkill. The second call draws a
white rectangle on our scale that represents the current temperature.
