Create a counter with a while loop.
## ~avatar avatar
Welcome! This tutorial will teach how to create a counter with a while loop. Let's get started!
## ~
Create a variable that acts as a counter and set it to `0`.
```blocks
let count = 0
```
Add a while loop that will loop over and over until the variable ``||variables:count||`` equals `10`.
```blocks
let count = 0
while (count < 10) {
}
```
Let's add a pause. Then show the value of ``||variables:count||``.
```blocks
let count = 0;
while (count < 10) {
basic.pause(100);
basic.showNumber(count)
}
```
Increase the value of ``||variables:count||`` by one.
```blocks
let count = 0
while (count < 10) {
basic.pause(100)
basic.showNumber(count)
count = count + (count - 1)
}
```
