 De>> 1. - When I use console.gotoxy(0,24); it takes me to line 22, not
 De>> 24. Is this a normal thing +/- a few lines, or is it supposed to be
 De>> dead accurate. 

 Ni> console.gotoxy() should be exactly accurate. Note that the X and Y cursor
 Ni> coordinates are 1-based. You may be off by 1.

Ahhh, I do remember reading that somewhere, now it makes sense

 De>> 2. - what are the { and } used for. As far as I can tell be reading
 De>> up, they are only deed for condition statements. Just trying to
 De>> understand. 

 Ni> There are several things { and } can be used for.
 Ni> 1. To surround blocks of code that contain more than one statement, such
 Ni> as: if (x === 1)
 Ni> {
 Ni> console.print("x is 1");
 Ni> console.crlf();
 Ni> console.pause();
 Ni> }

 Ni> 2. When defining functions:
 Ni> function printNumber(num)
 Ni> {
 Ni> console.print(num);
 Ni> }

 Ni> 3. When defining objects:
 Ni> var anObj = {
 Ni> aNum: 1,
 Ni> aString: "String"
 Ni> };

 Ni> There may be more cases I'm not thinking of.

OK, great, I can work with that, it's making sense to me now. Thanks for the help my friend. I really don't know why I waited so long to get into js.
