The central repository for the L&N STEMpunks Rookie Training in the 2019-2020 year.
Introduction
Welcome to the L&N STEMpunks Programming Team!
I am so happy that you decided to join! This repository will be the nexus all of us work from.
A few notes:
- I will try to be as hands-off as I can be. In my experience, people learn programming faster when they code, not when they have to sit through hours of lectures/presentations. I will try to keep that to a minimum.
- If you want, this can be a self-paced course. I won't stop you from going as slow or as fast as you want. I understand that you have school and other activities.
- If you have any trouble and need help, and I mean ANY, don't hesitate to come to me or to Jackson. (@Tyler or @Jackson on Slack)
Usage and Installation
To use this, make a copy of the duck_t folder and rename it with the first four letters of your last name and your first initial. (Example: Tyler Duckworth = duck_t)
You will complete the exercises in this course in the different folders.
Organization of Course
This will be a project-based course, meaning for each module you will learn the skills necessary to complete a project (basically, a unit). There are five main projects in this course.
- Reading and Writing To A File (Basic Python)
- Build an Abstract Robot (Objects)
- Build a Basic Robot (RobotPy)
- Build a Normal Robot (Project Structure, Robot Frameworks)
- Build a Complex Robot (PID, Sensors, Vision)
