Nested loops, Timers, DoPause Sub, Sleep API,
etc.
- Show what the output of the following code would be?
- How long does it take the program to produce all of its
output? (Given that the Timer1.Interval property is
1000)
- Explain to a beginning Visual Basic student a strategy for how to
answer this question in a way that any Visual Basic student with a
few weeks of experience could determine the what the correct
output is and what it would look like.

Assuming that the Print statement and Timers and Static
variables have been covered adequately enough so all of
the individual techniques and objects are understood in
isolation.
