Ok, I would like to output this code on 1 line, and it has to be using loops. Should I make ten variables to store all the numbers then output them all in the end? or Is there any other way? Confused

Turing:

var count: int:= 10

loop
put count
exit when count = 0
count:= count - 1
end loop

Just put a .. after your "put foo" statement. That's all you have to do!

you need this
Turing:

var count: int:= 10

loop
put count ..
exit when count = 0
count:= count - 1
end loop


note I added a .. after put count, to keep Turing on the current line

Wow! that was nice but I need to put space, actually tab, in between the numbers, How do I do this? Thanks

Nvm, I got it Smile

var count: int:= 10

loop
put count, "\t"..
exit when count = 0
count:= count - 1
end loop

So, Thank you very much Saltpro15 and Dusk Eagle.

One last thing, what is ".." function called? Is it in turing reference?

Oh wow. The Turing reference actually refers to it as dot-dot. That's it.


Quote:
put:
This put statement is sometimes used to close off a line that has been output piece by piece using put with dot-dot.

&&

locate:
put "*" .. % Use dot-dot to avoid clearing end of line
