Ok so, I'm a complete noob with all this, so this probably a really stupid question. But how would I make a turtle move a certain number of blocks forward rather than traveling forever?

How to make turtle move specific distance.

for i= 1, Blocks, 1 do

end
Where Blocks is the number of Blocks to move

Thanks so much :3
But how do I put it into a command? Say I want it to move 3 blocks, turn left, then move 3 blocks more?

function forwardNum(blocks)
for i= 1, blocks do
turtle.forward()
end
end
forwardNum(3)
turtle.turnLeft()
forwardNum(3)

Tell me, how was that any better than my code I just posted? If your code doesn't add anything, why post it?
Maybe I'm being a bit harsh, but if a more elegant solution exists, that should be sufficient :)/>/>
