🖥️ Program It
Challenge: Moving Product
You have learned what the Green Action and the Orange Flow Blocks do, how they are the same and yet different, and how they all work in concert. Now, we are going to put what you have learned to some practical use.
In the “Programming Workflow” section (page 9), the “Basic Programming Flow Model” was described and the “Pseudo Programming” was outlined. This challenge revisits the idea of pseudo-programming.
Below is a pseudo-program sequence for you to decipher and build your own program solution. Remember to apply the Programming Flow Model as you progress. Everything you need to know has been covered in the previous instructions and exercises, though you will need to tweak some of the settings we used to achieve a few of the goals.
HINT: Less of one thing and more of another will make the sharp 90° turns used in our squares into arcs.
Here is the pseudo-programming for you to decipher:
Starting with the arm raised, follow a line (at least 2’) to the color cube and stop
Lower arm to capture the cube
Reverse in an arc and stop
Raise the arm back up and make a victory sound
After you feel you have conquered the challenge, watch Video 20 (below). It is likely that the solution in the video is at least a bit different than yours. Most challenges have more than one solution.
