KEY MOVES on the Scratch program

This term, we're going to learn how to use the scratch program, and our task is to learn how to move our figure character. This is the key move. I dont really understand it at the moment. Although I think it's trying to teach me that when I try to move my character i have to put in the direction it's going and how far from the position my character has to go and other features.

Computers never do what you want them to do; they only do what tou tell them to do.
