 ### Example
 
-This program...
+This program sets up the ``stop animation`` part of the program,
+and then shows a string that you can stop with button ``B``.
 
 ```blocks
-basic.showString("STOP ME! STOP ME! PLEASE, WON'T SOMEBODY STOP ME?");
 input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
     led.stopAnimation();
 });
-'```

+
+It's important to set up ``stop animation`` before showing the
+animation, so the ``stop animation`` part of the program will be ready
+to go.
