You can bet that they aren't programmed by a sequence of instructions
of the form
Move joint A so many degrees
Move joint B twice that number
Now move joint C back by half the original number
etc.
I have some nerve damage, not enough to keep me from being able to
type (in the usual way), but enough so that I have very limited
feedback from my left hand. When I was younger, I really wanted to
learn to play a wind instrument and tried and tried, but was never
able to do it. The gross movements needed to operate a computer
keyboard are one thing, but playing an instrument like the clarinet
or recorder is another thing entirely.
