Hey, so this is my first program! It makes a simple 11x11 house. It has 3 2x3 windows and a skylight. Now this is version one, so the house is only made of one material, and I haven't gone through the code and made it more efficient or anything yet, it just works at the moment. Put fuel in slot 1, put the material you want the house built out of in slots 2 -7, glass panes (or glass, your choice) in slot 8, and Glass in slot 9, then run. Here's the code:
Current version: 1.01

a = 10
b = 10
c = 10
function checkStone()
    turtle.getItemCount(2)
    ItemCount1 = turtle.getItemCount(2)
    turtle.getItemCount(3)
    ItemCount2 = turtle.getItemCount(3)
    turtle.getItemCount(4)
    ItemCount3 = turtle.getItemCount(4)
    turtle.getItemCount(5)
    ItemCount4 = turtle.getItemCount(5)
    turtle.getItemCount(6)
    ItemCount5 = turtle.getItemCount(6)
    turtle.getItemCount(7)
    ItemCount6 = turtle.getItemCount(7)
    if ItemCount1 > 1 then
        turtle.select(2)
    elseif ItemCount2 > 1 then
        turtle.select(3)
    elseif ItemCount3 > 1 then
        turtle.select(4)
    elseif ItemCount4 > 1 then
        turtle.select(5)
    elseif ItemCount5 > 1 then
        turtle.select(6)
    elseif ItemCount6 > 1 then
        turtle.select(7)
    else
        write("No stone")
    end
end

How is it? Any criticism?
Change Log:
Spoiler1.01: Added front wall windows on either side of door, a little bit of cleaning up of the code
1.00: Initial version

Oh my… I don't like the checkStone function…
I could write it like this:


local function checkStone ()
	for i =2,7 do
		if turtle.getItemCount (i) > 1 then
			turtle.select (i)
			return true
		end
	end
	print "No stone."
	return false
end

This one checks certain slots. But you can make it even better! You can use one slot for reference. Like I made in my tunnel and branching programs:


local function findItem (slot)
	turtle.select (slot)
	for i = 1,16 do
		if i ~= slot then
			if turtle.getItemCount (i) > 0 then
				if turtle.compareTo (i) then
					turtle.select (i)
					return true
				end
			end
		end
	end
	if turtle.getItemCount (slot) > 1 then
		return true
	else
		turtle.select (1)
		print "No items found"
		return false
	end
end

What it does - it searches same item as in given slot in all slots of turtle's inventory, and if it finds any - it selects that slot and returns true. If it doesn't - it checks if the given slot has two or more items (so turtle can use one of them), and if it has - returns true. Otherwise, if there are only one item in the given slot, and no other slots with the same item, it selects the first slot, prints "No items found" and returns false.
