## 1. What is a for loop?
Answers will vary. In general, for loop refers to the code that repeats for a fixed number of times. We specify the LED using x, y coordinates.
## 2. Consider the following code
2016-03-30 22:41:01 +02:00
```blocks
2016-03-26 00:47:20 +01:00
for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
basic.showNumber(i, 150)
}
```
If the rectangle below represents the BBC micro:bit, shade the areas that will be displayed. Explain why that particular area is shaded.
Let's create a for loop where `0` is the loop's starting value, `i` is the index variable, and `4` is the ending value. The index variable `i` starts at 0 and increases by 1 each time through the loop. The loop ends when `i = 4`.
