Scratch is a block-based visual programming language and online community targeted primarily at children aged 8 to 16. It is used to create games, animations, and other interactive media. A timer in Scratch is used to control the length of time that a sprite is visible or moving on the stage. It can also be used to trigger other events, such as playing a sound or saying a phrase.
To create a timer in Scratch, open the “Events” tab in the block palette and drag the “when timer >” block onto the stage. The number in the block represents the number of seconds that the timer will wait before triggering the following blocks. You can also use the “wait (seconds)” block to pause the script for a specified number of seconds.
