Programming

The Programming team members are Amit Levitzki, Daniel Vidal, Maya Fishbein and Yoni Wiezenberg are responsible for the 'brain' of the robot - they write the program for the robot.

They will have to write a program for the automation mode (the first minutes of the beginning of the competition). The program controls the robot, and sends signals from the controllers to the robot.

The software they use is from National Instruments - Lab View Robotics for FIRST FRC (special edition).

Programming Tips

• Always check you closed all the "{ / }" you wrote.
  Always check that you used ";" at end of lines as needed.
  Don't forget that there is a difference between the operators equal '==' and the '=' placement.
• Before you transfer and compile the code to the robot, you most to check that the 'Build Success' in the commuter.
• And the most important tip: do not even think about writing the code after 4 AM! It's not good for you or the robot (!)
