Xcode: prevent auto run

Hello,

How could I prevent Xcode from automating running of my code. For example:

var x = 1
while(x<24){
    print("a")
}

I am going to increment the x after printing "a", but before I am able to type x++ the Xcode runs my playground automatically.

For the loop demonstrated above auto running is fine, but when I have some complex loops that call functions with loops that have also some loops inside them my system starts to chug or Xcode crashes.

So what should I change, so the code would be run by the press of the button.
