remember.
Variable- A placeholder for a value that can change.
If statement- a line that determents if it will run the chunk of code.

Stage 9 maze
moveForward();
moveForward();
turnRight();
for (var count = 0; count < 3; count++) {
moveForward();
}

This code showed a command to a computer or a person, it tells you what you need
to do.

while (notFinished()) {
moveForward();
turnLeft();
moveForward();
turnRight();
}

It shows a pattern that goes through the program.

while (notFinished()) {
moveForward();

if (isPathLeft()) {
turnLeft();
}
}

It works kind of like a gps and it tells to turn right or left.

for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {


turnLeft(90);
moveForward(100);
}
for (var count2 = 0; count2 < 3; count2++) {
moveForward(100);
turnRight(120);
}

penColour(colour_random());
for (var count = 0; count < 8; count++) {
moveForward(100);
moveBackward(100);
turnRight(45);

}
This is used to repeat 8 times for shape with a lot of lines.

for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {


moveForward(100);
turnRight(120);
shoes going forward then turning right 120 degrees in a repeat block.
}

The artist
penColour('#ff0000');
moveForward(100);
turnRight(90);
moveForward(100);

turnRight(90);
moveForward(100);
turnRight(90);
moveForward(100);

this code shows when to turn and how many degrees to turn, also by how far you
go.

for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {


moveForward(20);
turnRight(90);
}

This shows to move forward by 20 spaces and take a right by repeating 4 times

language:
for (var count3 = 0; count3 < 4; count3++) {
for (var count2 = 0; count2 < 10; count2++) {
penColour(colour_random());
for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {
moveForward(20);
turnRight(90);
}
moveForward(20);
}

turnRight(80);
}
This code shoes what degrees an angle would be

for (var count = 0; count < 5; count++) {


moveForward();
turnLeft();
dig();
}
This shows a pattern where you remove dirt using a repeat block.

for (var count = 0; count < 7; count++) {


moveForward();
}
fill();
this shows that you move forward to fill in the hole.

for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {


moveForward(100);
turnRight(90);

}
This shows to go forward and turn right by 100 pixels on a repeat block.

function remove_7() {
for (var count2 = 0; count2 < 7; count2++) {
dig();
}
}

function fill_5() {
for (var count3 = 0; count3 < 5; count3++) {
fill();
}
}

for (var count = 0; count < 4; count++) {


remove_7();
moveForward();
turnLeft();
moveForward();
turnRight();

Internet protocol-an agreed upon set of requirements for delivering packets across a
network.
Ip address- a number assigned to any item that is connected to the internet.
Domain name service- the service that translates urls to its ip address.
Universal resource locator- an easy to address for calling a web page.
