So Many words in robotics
Some P words Below
Some P words Below
Perseverance - stick-to-it-iveness. think about the tiny Engine that would. Problem
solvers must be like ferrets - dive down dark tunnels, grab a controversy by the throat
and shake it until it isn’t a controversy any longer. See files DivideandConquer,
ScientificMethod, RobotProbSol, debugging tips.
Plan/ preplan – the additional you have got to share a programming station and testing
apparatus, the additional it pays to arrange your programs prior to.
Port – an area to maneuver data in/out of the mechanism. On the RCX, output ports A, B, C
allow the mechanism to send a symbol to show on the motors and lamps. Input ports one, 2, 3
allow the mechanism to receive a symbol telling it concerning lightweight, touch, rotations, and (if you have got
the money for the sensor) temperature. The IR (infrared) port permits programs to be
downloaded from the programming pc to the RCX computer. In creator Level four,
the IR port conjointly supports further communications.
Positive data – Knowing precisely what makes one thing work. “Goldilocks Ate
the porridge” is positive data. Having positive data typically suggests that your
search is over. See Failure.
Problem finding - takes time, generates frustration, gets messy, is also loud &
chaotic, is also quiet, focussed, persistent. It’s a method. It may be created higher,
faster, additional fun by smart cooperation. See files Brainstorm, DivideandConquer,
ScientificMethod, debugging tips, RobotProbSol, UnstickKitCards, UnstickKitInst,
WordWizardList.
[Gracious] expertness – concentrate on the task, and also the goals of achieving and
sharing information, and experiencing that method as joyful and fulfilling. Help each
other, specific appreciation. For coaches and mentors, your goal is for the youngsters to satisfy
the challenges with solutions and programs the youngsters have developed themselves. It
sets a particularly poor example to youngsters and different coaches to possess adults programming,
building, and guiding youngsters instead of teaching and sanctioning them. It robs them of true
achievement and also the deeper understanding and vanity that comes with it. For
kids, gracious expertness suggests that that specialize in challenges, not scores; on learning,
not beating; on sharing information and techniques while not doing somebody else’s work
for them. Gracious expertness is one among the guiding lights of FLL competitions.
Programming - writing/ making the precise set of directions that tell a pc what
to do. Any programming is completed in an exceedingly specific language. we tend to use Robolab, which is
icon-based. Any programing language encompasses a restricted range of words/icons; rules
about the order of words/icons; and rules concerning modifiers of words/icons. Because
computers aren’t that good, only fast, breaking the principles causes failure on any of
several levels.
Propulsion – a part of locomotion - the way to modification location. Notice it’s the way to “change
location” - not the way to “move from purpose A to point B”. Locomotion is moving across
space, however, doesn’t embrace knowing wherever you're or where you’re going.
Pulley – a wheel with a groove around the edge into that a string/rope/rubber band
fits and that turns the wheel and so the shaft to which it's connected. Beware
of elastic band breakage! NonLEGO rubber bands don't seem to be allowed in FLL
competitions.
Putdown Rule – for each putdown, there should be 3 put-ups. use caution to
distinguish constructive criticism from putdowns, however, each constructive criticism session
should embrace some positive remarks.
