Drawing a Square Using Repeat
In the previous example, a square was drawn using Pen, Move and Turn blocks. In
order to avoid repetition of commands, REPEAT command is used. This command
reduces the number of lines of commands you need to write to draw a figure. The
Repeat block in the Control blocks menu is used to do this task. You can drag
the blocks and keep inside the Repeat block. Let’s draw a square using the Repeat
block.

Step 1 Drag the block from the Control blocks menu.
Step 2 Drag the move 10 steps block, turn 15 degrees block and wait 1 secs block
one by one and attach inside the Repeat block. Change the values.
The script will be like this now:
