Programming Tutorials

Here is a tutorial created by us in text base, where we will be showing you how to program the basic movement of a robot.

Programming is what really tells the robot what and how to do the assignment task that the robot seeks to fulfill. Building a robot to pick up a block or sphere is only half of the battle. Programming is what truly allows the robot to use it's tools at its disposal and fulfill the tasks the driver seeks.

​

The Programming language used in Vex Robots is ROBOTC, a language base on C programming.  There are two ways of programming the robot, graphical or text base.
