newbie confusion

When I complete any of the "activities" in the Robotics with BoeBot, the led continues to blink.
Do I need an "end" statement? or what am I missing?
Thank you all for your patience
Glen

    Try putting something like this at the end of your programs:

    Finished:
   GOTO Finished

    Isn't there also an "END" command?

    END puts the BASIC Stamp into low-power mode and the internal watchdog will cause it to reset every 2.3 ms, hence the blink. You can terminate a program as Chris suggests above, or use STOP.
