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 `count` equals 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
let count = 0
|
|
while (count < 10) {
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Let's add a pause. Then show the value of the the count.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
let count = 0;
|
|
while (count < 10) {
|
|
basic.pause(100);
|
|
basic.showNumber(count)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Increase the value of count by one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```blocks
|
|
let count = 0
|
|
while (count < 10) {
|
|
basic.pause(100)
|
|
basic.showNumber(count)
|
|
count == count + 1
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
