Programing Workshop!!!!!!

This week the programing presentation was presented to us by John. He explained to us about how programing is a very important factor in the Robotics team because without the programing factor the robot wouldn't even move. To program the robot John uses a programing language called Visual Basic. Visual Basic is a computer based program the allows users like myself to communicate with the computer. Another very important thing that I learned about while taking the workshop is that when we program the robot we are actually giving it instructions or different ways to perform a task. Its almost as if we are programing the brain of the robot or another name for it would be the motherboard. I also learned that programing is a very serious job that shouldn't be taken for granted.
