For people that would like to learn to program using Arduino software, there is a free guide written by Brian Evans especially for beginners. It shows all the commands, syntax, even sample circuits for connecting a switch, a motor, a LED, a potentiometer, a CDS, a servo. All with code samples. Of course, there is more code on the Arduino Playgrounds, but this is the "read first".

An excellent find. Thanks for sharing! It's always been a pain for me to have to pop online and search around for a little code snippet to work on a function for my bot when I'm occasionally confusing my Arduino code with my Python. Tip from yours truly to anyone starting in on this: Don't try to learn more then one language at a time, it only leads to pain and lamentation... ;D

I program in C....can you really use Python for robotics?

Python is usually used for Computer Based Robots - robots that have laptops or motherboards on them. For microcontrollers use C
