Our work with the Fischertechnik robotics kits used Robo Pro, a very nice visual programing environment.
For our first efforts with actual text based programming, we will have a look at the language Python. You can click through here to visit Python.org.
Non essential trivia - Why was this language named Python? A clue is that the command line shell (not quite an actual IDE (Integrated Development Environment)) is named IDLE.
Mr. Olsen, I have completed the Python non-essential trivia. Could you check it on my blog and determine whether it is worth any extra-credit? Thank you.
