Thanks re: drink and water.

I saved it to study later.

If any beginner has not read the Tutorial, I stongly recommend it.
I 'logged' it and will print it later for reference..

The kitten example is more fun that the pair of gloves in toyshop.

The 'rtrue/rfalse' is explained very well.

Now--add the 'for' syntax.
(I asked my son who programs in anything and he will supply a C manual).
I do not know C and there must be others. The 'for' loop is
not the same as BASIC. Unless there is a built in 'delay' routine,
I would like to use 'for' to put in a brief delay in statements.
Statement 1 follows the action, a brief delay, statement 2 appears.
