Robot C and Natural Language
Step #1 Begin by opening up Robot C from your desktop.
Step #2 Create a folder Create a folder on your desktop to insert all your Robot C files, Here you will begin with your template and other basic programs, Immediately change the name of your modified file!
Step #3 Begin with Sample Program, VEX2 Test 1 Save in
Open > Basic Movement Step #3b Open > Basic Movement Test 1
Select > Moving Forward Step #3c Select > Moving Forward Test 1
Moving Forward is a sample program which may be modified. Step #3d Moving Forward is a sample program which may be modified. Test 1
Step #4 Change the name to TEST 1 Save in your desktop folder
