Perhaps watch over the video again to get a better understanding. I also find using pen and paper to step through the process (loop, function, etc) helps a lot (I still do this and I've been programming for just over a year).

Good luck!

Ive watched the videos repeatedly

The one with just one blank needs a number that will make the loop run 10 times. Things to look at to determine which number are:

  • what value does the loop start with?
  • what comparison operation is being used?
  • after running 10 times, what will the variable contain?

The multiple blank question might be easier to solve if you just write your own code to do the job following the genera structure shown, and then compare it to the code with the blanks to determine what each blank should contain.
