How do I make an object stop moving?

I have an object moving on a loop when I click a button and I need it to stop when I click the other button.

Try using a boolean variable which sets itself to true when the go button is clicked and to false when the stop button is clicked. Then use the boolean with a while loop to let the loop stop when the variable is false.

Be sure there's something that calls the method with the while loop in it, though. Otherwise, the object won't move whether it's true or not.

In my words

Make a boolean like X said
Make the loop
Put the loop in a if/else statement
Make sure its at false in the "true" section
make it so when you click the button the false sets to true
So if you if you click the button, if the boolean is treu, it will stop

If you want me to make an example. Ill do it in 5 minutes ok

I have the same issue. Can someone break it down into more steps? I have trouble with variables.
