Use a loop to complete the square, putting the least amount of blocks as possible in the loop.

Complete the star by identifying what part of the code makes the star, placing some of that code inside one loop and deleting the rest. Then complete the remaining part of the top line.

Complete all five parallel lines by copying some of the code that is currently inside the loop, and changing the x and y coordinates.

Try to re-create the Adinkra Symbols with a "Change" variable block, a nested loop (i.e. "Repeat block"), and two "translate" blocks (one by width and one by height)
