• frequency is the number of Hertz (how high or low the tone is, also known as pitch).
• ms is the number of milliseconds (one-thousandth of a second) that the tone lasts for.

Special handling of values

• If frequency is less or equal to zero, the sound is stopped.
• If ms is negative or zero, the sound is not stopped and will keep beeping.

let freq = music.noteFrequency(Note.C);
music.playTone(freq, 1000)
