                Hello everyone! I need a program where I type how much steps the turtle has to move. So 5 means 5 stpes forward. I know how to codes work but I don't KNOW all codes and then the right combinations and stuff. Can anyone help?

                Are you attempting to figure out how many moves a turtle can perform without refueling? Or something else?
turtle.getFuelLevel() will tell you how much fuel is left in the turtle. Each unit of fuel allows the turtle to move block.

                There is a program included on turtles already called go. type "go forward 5" it goes forward 5….same for back, up, and down. another called turn, so "turn left" or "turn right"
tArgs = {...}
length = tArgs[1]
for i = 1, length do
 turtle.forward()
end
Here's the code you asked for though. If you name the file "forward" or whatever….type "forward 5"…it'll go 5.
