Loop...without the loop

#1

Jun 24th, 2003

Hi. I'm in a Java class at harvard, and they gave us this assignment to create a function moveKiloMile(); , which moves an on-screen robot 1000 units. We can declare the function by using a function moveMile(); , which moves the robot 8 units. Below is the code that I wrote. I'm trying to find out how to do the kilomile function without using a loop, since the professor says that its relatively short.

class Mover extends UrRobot

	void moveMile()
