Are there any example programs in RobotC that will help me with beginning programming?

Download zip file with all the programs below here.

Solution:

As a matter of fact; here they are! Download the zip folder for all of the programs and notes listed below.

These programs were written by Jim and I at Albany during CTI Facilitator training as examples to be used in the classroom. A great way to use these would be for a quiz, or check for understanding. Give the students the Description and /or the Psuedocode, and have them demonstrate proficiency by writing the program or making it work.

1StartStopMotors:  Turn two motors in opposite directions at half power for five seconds then stop.

2Continuous Servo: Continuously run a servo back and forth at 0.5 sec intervals until a button is pressed.

3Motor til Touch: Turn right motor On Until Touch is pressed stop right motor.

4ledTilPotValue:  Turn on the green led until the potentiometer value is greater than 2048.

5MotorTilEncoderValue:    Turn on both motors until the encoder counts 480 degrees. Motor 2 is reversed in #pragma as if in a diff drive Useful if you want a robot to drive x distance before stopping.

6WaitforSonarThenMotorOff:  Wait until object is 20 cm away and turn the motors off.

NOTE: Refresh rate in the debugger has to be set on Pause Refresh.

7Line follower moves servo 4-1-11: move the servo to position 127 until a light object is detected, then move to position -127.

8Flashlight light sensor: Turn the flashlight on at dark, then of at light. Like a nightlight.

9LEDBlinkTilPot2048 Program the green led to flash on and off for 2 seconds

while the pot reads less than 2048.

10BumpLightOnNoBumpLightOff: Program the green led to turn on if the bumper switch is pressed,

and off if it’s released. Loop forever.

11IfThenElse: Program the green led to turn on if the bumper switch is pressed, and off if it’s released. Loop forever.

12IfTheElseNotes: Program the green led to turn on if the bumper switch is pressed, and off if it’s released. Loop forever. WITH NOTES

13-3xCounterExample: Create a count based while loop that turns a motor on for 1 second,

then off for one second. Do this five times. WITH NOTES

14Functions: Make the LED light up when the bump switched is pushed, and turn off when it is not.

This is an example of a function.

15 Advanced Functions : ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

-FUNCTIONS THAT ARE SIMILAR LIKE FORWARD SLOW AND FORWARD FAST,

-YOU CAN USE *PARAMETERS* TO SEND VALUES LIKE MOTOR SPEED OR SERVO POSITION

-VOIDS JUST DO STUFF/ INT BELOW RETURNS A VALUE TO TASK MAIN.

16  While Timer:

NOTE:

TO MAKE A PROGRAM RUN FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME

TIMER STARTS AS SOON AS THE PROGRAM DOES.

THEREFORE YOU NEED TO CLEAR THE TIMER BEFORE USE.

THERE ARE 4 TIMERS

17 Button Pushes in 30 sec: TO MAKE A PROGRAM RUN FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME

TIMER STARTS AS SOON AS THE PROGRAM DOES.

THEREFORE YOU NEED TO CLEAR THE TIMER BEFORE USE.
