from spike import PrimeHub, LightMatrix, Button, StatusLight, ForceSensor, MotionSensor, Speaker, ColorSensor, App, DistanceSensor, Motor, MotorPair
from spike.control import wait_for_seconds, wait_until, Timer

hub = PrimeHub() 

hub.light_matrix.show_image('HAPPY')

The first two lines introduce commands that we can use below them. We will look at them in-depth later on.

The last line in the code is the command for displaying an image using the hub lights. In this case, the image is called "HAPPY" and it is a little smiley face :)
