Full Speed Ahead

Last class we finally used our taskbots for programming. A robot can only do the action if it has allgorithm which is a recipe or procedure to command the robot what to do, to do this we need a programming system. The NXT programming is what we are going to use to do simple commands. At our first lesson of programming we were given a task to program a simple run. We also learn that there are 3 basic icon which is move, wait and stop. Each of this icon can be configured to time, lenght, port. So we place two move icons which is to start the motor for port c and then port b and then we placed wait icon so that we could give specific amount of distance and rotation. Later we used the stop icon which stops the motor for port c and b.
