Learning Math/CS/Engineering Design with Robotics
CSP Unit 3 Lesson 7.10

Libraries and APIs: As you have probably noticed, there are many more commands available in the "Robot" and "Drawing" menus of commands. Sometimes we talk of a "library" of commands or functions, meaning a related group of commands, such as the library of drawing commands. We also talk of an "Application Programming Interface" or "API," which refers to the total of commands available in a programming language. Most of the additional commands in then Robot and Drawing command menus are self-explanatory, so this activity gives you the chance to explore further.

Using a variety of commands from the Robot and Drawing command menus, create a program that extends one of our previous exercises and/or does something new. Try out some new commands, and be creative! (One suggestion: You can use the "background image" command in the Drawing menu to select a new background from a variety of choices.) |
