Programming Basics - RobotC Introduction to Robotics Thinking about Programming Creating a successful robot takes a team effort between humans and machines. Role of the Robot The robot follows the instructions it is given, thereby carrying out the plan. Human/Machine Communication Because humans and robots don’t normally speak the same language, a special language must be used to translate the necessary instructions from human to robot. These human-to-robot languages are called programming languages. Instructions written in them are called programs. ROBOTC is just one of many such programming languages that humans use to talk to machines. Think about “Behaviors” Behaviors are a convenient way to talk about what a robot is doing and what it must do. Moving forward, stopping, turning, looking for an obstacle… these are all behaviors. Complex Behavior Some behaviors are big, like “solve the maze.” Basic or Simple Behavior Some behaviors are small, like “go forward for 3 seconds.” Big behaviors are actually made up of these smaller ones. Planning the Behaviors PSUEDOCODE As the programmer becomes more experienced, the organization of the behaviors in English will start to include important techniques from the programming language itself, like if-else statements and loops. This hybrid language, halfway between English and the programming language, is called pseudocode.It is an important tool in helping to keep larger programs understandable. Statements Statements are instructions for the robot. The most basic kind of statement in ROBOTC simply gives a command to the robot. The motor[port3] = 127; statement in the sample program you downloaded is a simple statement that gives a command. It instructs the motor plugged into Motor Port 3 to turn on at full power. Order the Statements Statements are run in order as quickly as the robot is able to reach them. Running this program on the robot turns the motor on, then waits for 3000 milliseconds (3 seconds) with the motor
