code:
var startTime:int:=Time.Sec
var endTime:int:= 120 %put time in secondes to run
var curent:int

loop
    curent := Time.Sec  - startTime
    put curent
    exit when curent >= endTime
end loop


Theres a code for a small timer.

here's my code



var random3:int
randint(random3,1,3)
var answer : int
var random : int
var random2 : int
var reply:string
loop
randint (random, 1, 12)
randint (random2, 1, 12)


put random ,"*",random2
get answer
if answer = random * random2 then
put "Caught it"
else
put "Wrong, deducting money"
end if
end loop

i want the thing to end after 30 seconds and the seconds have to be displayed

So try adding the counter, with the 30 seconds limit, inside the loop.

Better?

code:
var random3 : int
var startTime : int := Time.Sec
var endTime : int := 30
var current : int

randint (random3, 1, 3)
var answer : int
var random : int
var random2 : int
var reply : string



var random3 : int
var startTime : int := Time.Sec
var endTime : int := 30
var current : int

randint (random3, 1, 3)
var answer : int
var random : int
var random2 : int
var reply : string



loop
    current := Time.Sec - startTime
    locate (1, 1)
    put current
    randint (random, 1, 12)
    randint (random2, 1, 12)

    put random, "*", random2

    loop
        locate (3, 1)
        get answer
        if answer not= random * random2 then
            put "Wrong, deducting money"
            locate (3, 1)
            put "       "
            locate (5, 1)
            put "         "
        else
            locate (3, 1)
            put "        "
            locate (4, 1)
            put "                "
            put "Caught it"
            exit
        end if
    end loop

    exit when current >= endTime
end loop
