challenge #9 variable instructions

The challenge the class was working on, I had already done beforehand (see EvSteve 1.0)

I was told to find a block in the Ev3 programming software and design a challenge based around that block. I'm choosing the variable block for this challenge.

My plan for the robot is for it to respond to button presses by making a movement depending on the button that has been pressed. For example if I press the up button followed by the right button and then the up button again I would like the robot to go forward turn to the right and go forward again.If I finish it I will add sensors to the mix. I will also try and do it without variables

here is a picture of the first program that was insanely huge and did not work

after which I made a much simpler program which is shown here.

what I learned from this challenge is that The more complicated solution is not always the best answer to the challenge and sometimes going simpler is better. The building of the robot went as planned.nothing else apart from that went as planned mostly with the code getting deleted and then me writing it again and then it not working. what I learned is how to make better decisions when it comes to programming and efficiency. my goals for the next challenge is finish it faster.
