Structuring the program
This example can be solved with a very simple structure using two nested
FOR..NEXT loops.
Firstly we create a loop to step through each row (Y) in turn:
FOR y=0 to ydiv-1
NEXT y
‘ydiv’ is the number of rows, and the -1 is because we start counting at 0
rather than 1.
Now, within this loop we create another for the ‘X’ direction:
FOR y=0 to ydiv-1
FOR x=0 to xdiv-1
‘
NEXT x
NEXT y
