Activity 3.2 Robot Behaviors and Writing Pseudocode (VEX V5)

In robotics, a set of coded instructions the robot must follow.

• voice commands

• computer program

• poem

• directions

Anything your robot does; turning on a motor is a behavior, following a line is a behavior, navigating a maze

• behavior

• plan

• project

• complex

Which is an example of a complex Behavior?

• turning on a single motor

• moving forward

• moving through a maze

• turn motors on and dirve foward for 2 seconds

Which is an example of a simple Behavior?

• turning on a single motor

• moving forward

• moving through a maze

• turn motors on and dirve foward for 2 seconds

Which is an example of a Basic Behavior?

• turning on a single motor

• moving through a maze

• turn motors on and dirve foward for 2 seconds

• turn right, wait 5 seconds

To plan a program, programmers use (a)   , to write out the structure and main flow of the program before they begin to develop their code.

___________________ is a compact and informal description of a computer program. It is a hybrid language that combines the features of the programming language with the native language of the person writing the program, such as English or Spanish.

• Pseudocode

• Spanglish

• Techy

• Klingon

What shape would the path of a robot create if it executed the example pseudocode?

• A circle

• A pentagram

• A square

• An "A"

We will test your program by running it in the virtual playgrounds in the environment using....

• index cards and string

• slides and swings

• TinkerCAD
