Robotics Worksheet: Robot If / Else
Robot tip (True → if, false → else): Put the reading into the condition: true → the if part, false → the else part. < means strictly less; an equal reading makes it false. else if: check the conditions from the top; the first true one wins. while: repeat until the condition is false.
