robot code,how does it work?

[goatfish]

can someone please tell me how writing code and stuff works,i have no idea

[ed1380]

you learn a programming language. whether it be C, basic, java, etc.

you write the program in that language.

then use a compiler to change that code into machine language.

then program in to the MCU

LOL, yeah my big bro teases me about that. I pretty much do robotics all day. get back on topic.

[goatfish]

yea but trumpkin how amny years have you been doing robotics,this is only my first year

[Trumpkin]

I can't remember exactly when i started, but this is probably the beginning of my second year of actually doing robotics stuff. Plus my dads a programmer, so that helps.  I've been interested about robotics a lot longer than i've been doing it. Actually, I've been doing robotics stuff since i was like 8 or 9 if you include LEGO robotics, and i'm still on a first lego league robotics team. I guess i've always been interested about electronics stuff. Now that i practically wrote an autobiography about myself, can we get back on topic?

why not?
