PROGRAMMING

SAMPLE PROGRAM FOR THE DRAWING ROBOT

Arrange four sheets of paper in a large square and tape them down to a smooth ﬂoor or tabletop. Aach a

pencil or marker to the drawing robot, and place the robot near one edge of the paper with the pencil touching

the paper. Test out the program below and see what paern the drawing robot makes. This program is

preloaded in the app in the Load Demo Code menu.

This program shows

how loops can be

placed or “nested”

within other loops.

Variables

Just like loops, variables are another important part of coding. A variable contains a value

that can change depending on the information that the program provides. Initially the

variable item in this block is set to a value of 3.

This loop repeats the following steps 3 times.

This loop repeats the following blocks a number of times equal to the value

set in the item variable. The ﬁrst time the code is run, the value of the item

variable is 1, but code will change the item variable later in the program.

This portion of code turns on motors 1 and 2, moving the

drawing robot forward.

This portion of code adds 1 to the current value of the item

variable and saves the new value as the item variable. For

example, the ﬁrst time that the program is run the value of

the item variable is increased from 1 to 2.

Then this portion of code turns the motors in the opposite

directions, so the robot drives backward.

After the ﬁrst run-through, the loop repeats again, but this

time the drawing robot turns the motors on for twice as long.

What will happen the third time the loop runs?

After the main loop has

repeated 3 times, both

motors are turned oﬀ.
