don't wanna put anyone down but u r right u r new at this. what exactly did u wanna show us just the background changing colours. its a good start though that u know how to change the background colour. some people in my class know turing but still keep asking me how to change the background colour. lol. good luck with turing.

Programs involving flashing colors are usually the first kind people in my class discovered, too :D Here's a cool one based on yours. Same idea, but a bit more involved.


var col : int := 1
var increment : int := 1

loop
    colorback (col)
    put " "
    col += increment
    if col = 255 then
        increment := -1
    elsif col = 1 then
        increment := +1
    end if
end loop


Try to understand what I did here =) If you can, I'll kick it up a notch and we'll go from there ^ ^
