What are ticks and how do you use them?

[funnylookingfig]

I have to do a strobe moodlight lab and it says to use ticks. But I don't quite understand ticks. Do you just input it in like Ticks 1 = new Color(0,0,0); or do you have to do something do something else.

There's not enough information provided here, or you aren't providing all of the information needed. Ticks could mean a timer tick, or it could mean CPU ticks/cycles.
