Workshop › Connect Four › Step 5 of 38

A whole row

What we are doing

Seven holes in a row: instead of writing seven calls, a for loop repeats one call for each column, 0 to 6.

```js
for (let col = 0; col < COLS; col++) {
  const x = col * CELL + CELL / 2
  const y = TOP + CELL / 2
  disc(x, y, '#0f172a')
}
```

What it means

• for (let col = 0; col < COLS; col++): start with col at 0, repeat while it is below 7, add 1 after each turn.
• x moves one cell to the right each time: 32, 96, 160, ...

Your turn

Replace the single disc(...) call with the loop.
