Ok heres a quick one.

This example will print "hi" over and over.


This example will print "HI" 3 times


Note the variable t is just that a variable it can be almost anyname you wish. Just be sure to use the same variable in the next statement like this.

This code does the same thing as the last. But it will print it 10 times.



The for next loop just cycles as many times as you tell it to.
10 20 1000 30000 what ever you need.

This example will print the numbers 1 to 23 then print your name over and over.

Ok the if statement.

Here we go. The if statement allows you to check a condition. Using signs like.
> greater than
< Less than
= equal to

example.


You could also write the above code like this.


These will only print B is greater than A because its the only true statement. You can also use and,or but you can get to that later. Hope these help.

no problem

If you take a look at the DBP's help files it is gonna be
enough to learn.. but I can help you a little bit..
then you go there and try.. try the commands and search for
examples..




`it means that...
repeat
`these actions:
print counter#
r=r+1
wait 10
...are gonna be executed...
...until the variable called "r" is equal to 100...
until r=100
Each time the program reads the line above it checks if
the condition (r=100) is true.. if it isn't, then it goes
back to "repeat".

The worst foe lies within the self..
