Wierd glitch

I have a variable that is for example representing 4 then using this script instead of getting lower it gets higher and if I use * instead scratch gets an error.
<forever>
<change{ Variable }by( (( <{ Variable }> </> 10 )) )
<end>

Re: Wierd glitch

You seem to be changing the variable.
This will cause it to go higher  smile

4/10 = 0.4

What scratch is doing is changing "variable" by 0.4 each time  smile

Re: Wierd glitch

To make it go lower try using

Set variable to variable/10

This way scratch will make variable = 0.4, then 0.04 etc:

Re: Wierd glitch

Or, depending on what you want to do, change it by a negative amount like Variable/-10.  Read the Change block as equivalent to Set Variable to Variable + whatever.

Re: Wierd glitch

The above comments are correct... However, one neat thing to do, is to add:
<pen down>
<go to x sad  (( <x position> <+> 1 )) )y sad  <{ Variable }> )>
[/blocks]
To your script, to plot a cool logarithmic curve.
