Remember: A counting loop repeats a set number of times. Repeat until keeps going until something becomes true, and it checks every time round.

The lemonade stallAt the school fair, Mina and Teo needed a jug of water for the lemonade stall. Bo had a cup and a tap. Mina's first program said repeat ten times: scoop a cup and pour it in. But the jug held only six cups, so in went cup seven and water splashed across the table! Counting needs you to know the number, said Grandpa Joe, and he showed her repeat until. Now Bo scooped, poured and looked, again and again. At cup six Bo looked, nodded and stopped, and not one drop spilled. Next morning Teo rolled in a huge barrel, and the same program still worked. This time it took fifteen cups.
