Is there a counter like command?

I want to make a program that counts how many times I pressed a button but I don't really know if there is a counter command like in C programming language.

    Just increment a variable each time the button is pressed. You will need to debounce the button, of course.

    You also need a way to pause the code until the button is released, else the loop watching the button will keep repeating and adding more button detections.

    In PBASIC, Spin, or what?
