+>Degrees are units to measure angles or turns. A full turn is 360 degrees, a half turn 180 degrees and a quarter turn 90 degrees. The commands <userinput

+> and <userinput

+<glossdef
+><para
+>Some commands take input, some commands give output, some commands take input <emphasis
+>and</emphasis
+> give output and some commands neither take input nor give output.</para>
+<para
+>Some examples of commands that only take input are: <screen>
+forward 50
+pencolour 255,0,0
+print "Hello!"
+</screen
+> The <userinput
+>forward</userinput
+> command takes <userinput
+>50</userinput
+> as input. <userinput
+>forward</userinput
+> needs this input to know how many <glossterm linkend="pixels"
+>pixels</glossterm
+> it should go forward. <userinput
+>pencolor</userinput
+> takes a colour as input and <userinput
+>print</userinput
+> takes a string (a piece of text) as input. Please note that the input can also be a container. The next example illustrates this: <screen
+>x = 50
+print x
+str = "hello!"
+print str
+</screen
+></para>
+
+<para
+>Now some examples of commands that give output: <screen>
+x = inputwindow "Please type something and press OK... thanks!"
+r = random 1,100
+</screen
+> The <userinput
+>inputwindow</userinput
+> command takes a string as input, and outputs the number or string that is entered. As you can see, the output of <userinput
+>inputwindow</userinput
+> is stored in the container <userinput
+>x</userinput
+>. The <userinput
+>random</userinput
+> command also gives output. In this case it outputs a number between 1 and 100. The output of the random is again stored in a container, named <userinput
+>r</userinput
+>. Note that the containers <userinput
+>x</userinput
+> and <userinput
+>r</userinput
+> are not used in the example code above.</para>
+
+<para
+>There are also commands that neither need input nor give output. Here are some examples: <screen
+>clear
+penup
+wrapon
+hide
