actionscript, that infuriatingly intractable marshmellow fluff...

trace

var message = "Hi there";
trace (message);                                    // prints "Hi there"

var message = "yellow";
trace ("big " + message + " truck");                // prints "big yellow truck"

conditionals

var message = "yellow";
trace ("big " + message + " truck");                // prints "big yellow truck"
if (message == "yellow") {
trace ("yes, i did say big yellow truck.");        // prints "yes, i did say big yellow truck"
}

loops

trace (101);
trace (102);
trace (103);
trace (104);
trace (105);

var x = 101;
trace (x);
x = x + 1;
trace (x);
x = x + 1;
trace (x);
x = x + 1;
trace (x);
x = x + 1;
trace (x);

var x = 101;
while (x <= 105) {     // as long as x is less than 105...
trace (x);
x = x + 1;           // ...continue to trace x but add one each time
}
