What does the "i" in the (repeat for "i" from 1 to 10 with step 1) loop block do?

Hi @Rasmus_Broe,

@Javier_Montiel is correct that the “i” is a variable; however its function is to store the current number value (which is between 1 & 10, incrementing by 1 with each loop) so that number can be used within the loop.

Here’s an example:

CoBlocks_Scene1_CoSpace_65
CoBlocks_Scene1_CoSpace_651767×724 104 KB

The result is that Fancy Boy counts from 1 to 10, in 10 seconds. You can change the name of “i” to whatever you like:

CoBlocks_Scene1_CoSpace_65 (2)
CoBlocks_Scene1_CoSpace_65 (2)1972×724 110 KB

The result is that the Fancy Boy counts in tens, from 0 to 100 (ie, 0, 10, 20, 30 etc).

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further queries about this. If it solves your issue, please mark as Solved.
