Program Field

There are two different methods how you can program the robor arm, you can use python or Blockly programming. 

Blockly

Blockly is a visual programming tool developed by Google that allows users to create code by snapping together blocks rather than typing text-based code. Each block represents a coding command or function, and users can drag and connect blocks to build logical sequences or functions. This block-based approach helps beginners, especially young learners, understand programming concepts without needing to know a specific programming language.

Python

In the Program Field, you can program the robotic arm using Python. This field runs as a Python script, so standard Python rules apply to your programming.

Standard Python Rules:
  1. Indentation: Use consistent indentation (typically four spaces) to define code blocks.
  2. Variable Names: Variable names must start with a letter or underscore, followed by letters, numbers, or underscores (e.g., robot_arm, _myVariable).
  3. Comments: Use # for single-line comments and triple quotes (""" or ''') for multi-line comments to explain your code.
  4. Data Types: Be familiar with basic data types such as integers, floats, strings, and lists.
  5. Functions: Define functions using the def keyword, followed by the function name and parentheses (e.g., def move_arm():).
  6. Control Structures: Use if, for, and while statements to control the flow of your program.
  7. Libraries: Import necessary libraries using the import statement (e.g., import math).
