The ‘X’ position can range from 240 to -240. Y position can range
                               from 180 to -180.

                 needs  a  number  to  indicate  the  exact  direction.

                 The direction numbers are between −180 and 180

                 degrees.  Pointing  at  0  degrees  means  facing  up
                 with respect to the Sprite. Pointing at 90 degrees           –105                               105
                 is facing to the right with respect to Sprite. Also,           –120                            120

                           move 10   steps            This block lets the Sprite move forward (in the direction
                                                      it is facing).
                        turn    15   degrees          This block turns Sprite in clockwise direction.


                        turn    15   degrees          This block turns Sprite in an anti-clockwise direction.


                          go to x: 0  y: 0            This block moves the Sprite to a specified XY position.


                             set x to 0               This block changes position of Sprite on X-axis according
                                                      to the specified position.

                           change x by 10             This block changes position of Sprite on X-axis by specified
                                                      number of steps.
