So you have isSprite() right could you make it work as a is(type)() so then you could input sprite number stri by and more

I can’t make a truly generic `is(type)` block because MakeCode doesn’t support that kind of type syntax. I could make a generic `is(value, type)` using a type selector, but it would still only support the types the extension defines. For Blocks, I’m keeping helpers like `isSprite`, `isNumber`, `isString`, etc. because they’re clearer and work better with MakeCode’s type system.

Alright, after 21 days have passed, I’ve created a new extension:

**The Better Loops Extension!!!**

This extension does exactly on how it sounds; it adds more loop blocks such as looping something once, being able to use **do…while** loops in blocks, etc.

Sorry for being late on this, but I am coming out with more extensions with the prefix:

**Better Better…** (wonder if we could use our memory to throw it back to some extensions…:boom: :boom: )

Enjoy!
