play

Play a built-in melody.

There are several built-in melodies which you can play in your game. When using blocks, a melody is chosen from a dropdown list. In JavaScript, an instance of one of the built-in melodies is referenced in your code. You call the play function from that instance of the melody, just like this:

Your program continues immediately after the melody begins playing. If you want the code that follows the play function to wait, you can use playUntilDone instead.
