Re: [Audyssey] FW: [The Teacher List] Enchanting - robotics programming
My fellow friend, you are wrong. Why not do some research on NFB. Why, they had a robotics club a few years ago in the 2009 Youth slam. They use that code to program the robots. It had 0 graphical pictures. It is not just for the blind, but rather for those who are not visual learners. I would say that program would be good for us to use, but at the same time, what good would it do if we used that program to make games with? I mean, the original point was to see if we could make games using the loge systems. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] FW: [The Teacher List] Enchanting - robotics programming
Its for programming robots, so wouldn't be near enough for doing games. It mostly does left, right, backwards, forwards, steps and circles. All the things nice little robots need to grow on.

Re: [Audyssey] FW: [The Teacher List] Enchanting - robotics programming
I doubt it nicol. The lego games were basically involved with building lego things on the computer, and this sounds like a way for children to have more advanced programming control over their lego creations by using a customized gui, (graphical user interface). Not only would the gui need totally rewriting into something accessible, but also the very lego software it interacts with would need to be made accessible too, which would be an even more huge task. Beware the gRue!

Re: [Audyssey] FW: [The Teacher List] Enchanting - robotics programming
I know there is a text version of the program called Bricx CC which is
all text.
It uses code like:
#include subroutines.nxc
Task Main())
{
Forward;
wait(1000)
stop;
}

Re: [Audyssey] FW: [The Teacher List] Enchanting - robotics programming
hmmm looks like some ai type program. There are two graphical types though. Graphical could mean is picture driven being this is probably for children it may be. Or it could just have a gui. For the blind? I don't know. Its for the lego systems which wouldn't be good on their own to us unless we had a set. As a standard language. I don't know. If its for children though I doubt it will be that smart. I mean children don't know much. It will be a piece of absolute crap for anyone bar children. I havn't bothered visiting the site as such but from the message its probably not for us but then I am no serious hacker/ programmer. I can change options in an interface. I couldn't betrusted for anyting over real simple code. Though if its opensource and graphis are included for the program itself if we just not have those or have a hybrid system then that could work. But I don't know if there are any applications for any of us. At 11:25 a.m. 5/02/2011, you wrote: Hi list I got this interesting message from another announcement only list I belong to.
