We need to keep track of how many times the left and down arrow keys are pressed.

  • Click on the Python tab and click on . Drag two Integer Variable commands into your program.

A variable lets us store information. The variable has a name and a value. Like this: name = value.

  • Change the name of one variable to left_count and the other to down_count.
  • Change both of the values to 0.
