MDC_Stairs_Cut3

-- This program digs a mining stairway with a flight of stairs five steps deep and two wide
-- Pastebin code = "31Vzy3bj"; Pastebin name is "MDC_Stairs_Cut3"

-- Place the turtle down on the right-forward end of the upper pad (a 2 stone x 2 stone)
-- Place coal into Turtle slot #14 to assure adequate fueling
-- Place stone into Turtle slot #15 and #16 to assure adequate placement resources
-- This program begins by asking you to indicate whether you want to cut an upper hall (H response) or stairs (S response)
