Intro to ROBOTC

A program is

• A logical and step-by-step set of directions for the robot to follow
• A logical and step-by-step set of directions for the programmer to follow
• A set of directions, written in paragraph form, that even a robot can follow
• None of these

The role of the robot is to carry out the plan by following the steps in the program.

• True
• False

What is a programming language?

• Only ROBOTC
• A method for the robot to communicate with the programmer
• A program that allows the robot to think for itself
• A language that lets the programmer communicate a plan to the robot

Pseudocode is:

• False code
• A code, written in English, that the robot can understand
• A code, written in binary language, that the robot can understand
• A set of basic steps that the human can use to plan the program

_______ are a convenient way to talk about what the robot is doing and what it must do to carry out the plan created by the programmer. 

• Operations
• Actions
• Behaviors
• Instructions

Simple behaviors are made up of complex behaviors. 

• True

What does it mean when a command appears in color when typed in ROBOTC?

• The command is typed incorrectly
