If you found this helpful check out my other computercraft tutorials, thanks for watching />

only one slight criticism you used a sleep() instead of waiting for a Redstone event with a os.pullEvent()
Other than that it is a good tutorial.

You're a good guy greg. I watched it to see if I'd learn anything, and in practice, no I didn't, but in logic I leveled up a wee bit. Well done video as well. High quality tutorial.

So why is this better? Does it create less lag?

if you have one computer that is running this loop and sleeping between that is ok if you have a lot it will begin to be a problem. the more computers executing code the more the lag. but if you have the same hundred all waiting for a redstone event that will cause no lag as computers will only activate when something happens.
