Logic
We ask the user which definition they want, and based on their input, ChatGPT generates the definition of the particular word. The sprite then uses the text-to-speech extension to speak out the definition.
Follow the steps below:
- Open PictoBlox and create a new file.
- Choose a suitable coding environment for block-based coding.
- Add the text-to-speech and ChatGPT extensions to your project from the extension palette located at the bottom right corner of PictoBlox.
- We use the Set Maximum Length to () block to specify the maximum length in ChatGPT, which represents the maximum number of words allowed in a single message.
- We prompt users to indicate which definition they would like to receive.
- We pass this input to the define() block, which sends a request to ChatGPT to define the user answer.
- We utilize the getAI block to retrieve the most recent response from ChatGPT. Then, we use the say() method to have the sprite speak out this response.
- Finally, we utilize the speak() block from the text-to-speech extension to have the given text spoken aloud.
