Task 2 - Sensing Click to see more

In maze, pong, or collide type games, you usually want a sprite to bounce back or move when it touches an edge or an object. This can be accomplished by using a Sensing block such as the ones shown below. These blocks are usually placed in a block and then an block (which are Control blocks) along with Motion blocks that tell the sprite how far to move.
