:::3. Before proceeding, make certain that you identify any and all errors in '''lab2e.py'''. When the check script tells you everything is '''OK''', you may proceed to the next step.
== PART 2 - Understanding Using WHILE Loops loops with script Arguments ==
:You will now learn to make your Python scripts more flexible by using numbers as arguments to be used with WHILE loops. You will learn that arguments used in Python scripts are strings (not numbers) and therefore, cannot be used in Mathematical operations unless they are converted into numbers (like an integer). You will be learning how to use the int() function in order to convert a string into an integer.
:'''Perform the Following Steps:'''
:#Make a copy of '''lab2e.py''' and call it '''lab2f.py'''.
blast off!
