Computers only follow the commands they are given, so these need to be precise and accurate.
Commands can be joined together to create sequences in Scratch to achieve a desired outcome.
Sequences can be separated into individual subroutines.
Programs should be written so that other people can easily understand them. Subroutines are used to do this.

A sprite in Scratch can only have one sequence of code blocks.

Sequences of code can be separated into subroutines and these subroutines can be called multiple times.
