Conclusion Questions
3.1.1
1. These motors and sensors may be used in a variety of ways. Some can be used to measure distance or degrees, while others can move to specific positions, and others can spin 360 degrees in different speeds.
2. Some of the motors and sensors did not perform the way I thought they would, for example the light sensor measured light as the lighter the light, the lower the number which I thought would be the opposite.

3.1.2
1. Activity 3.1.2 was the easiest of the programming and I encountered no problems while doing it.
2. The outputs would be used to turn on a LED light and to spin the motors.

3.1.3
1. Activity 3.1.3 was more challenging the 3.1.2 in that there were more steps in the coding process and the use of different commands. I struggled the most with programming the potentiometer and bump switch.
2. Bump switches could be used to operate machinery, while the button is pressed the machine will stay on, motors could be used to turn wheels, and potentiometers could be used to measure angles.

3.1.4
1. Activity 3.1.4 was challenging for me when it came to the "while" and "if" commands. Also completing this at my house with a more updated version of ROBOTC and not knowing where all the commands were was challenging as well.
2. While loops could be used in order for machines to complete more then one task at a time. If-Else structures could be used when using a machine to manufacture a product in order that the machine knows to do certain steps right after each other and not all at once.
