As we continue to learn turtle drawing, each of us came up with different patterns with favorite color and speed. Here is one example, import turtle turtle.speed(500) for i in range(360): turtle.forward(100) turtle.right(20) turtle.forward(50) turtle.left(10) turtle.forward(50) turtle.left(20) turtle.forward(50) turtle.right(10) turtle.forward(100) turtle.left(30) turtle.forward(100) turtle.right(30) turtle.penup() turtle.setposition(0,0) turtle.pendown() turtle.left(1) turtle.done() Final pattern  

We decided to switch back to mBot programming, the first one we started with follow path. Even though coding looks simple there are multiple pieces can go wrong. First time we uploaded Arduino module directly into mbot. We are planning to explore few other projects to make mBot to do more interesting stuff for us.

Each team (2 members) is working on next idea. They are working on idea to execute next project.

Python turtle is fun to learn, it teaches graphics in easy way. We started with basic shape and fill color as below import turtle turtle.color(‘red’,’yellow’) turtle.begin_fill() turtle.forward(200) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(200) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(200) turtle.left(90) turtle.forward(200) turtle.end_fill() turtle.done() Output would be we continued to add few more line of code to learn about pattern import turtle turtle.speed(500) for … More MCC – Turtle

R2D2 team has been busy leaning Scratch!!! We completed scratch basic to understand how to make sprite move up, down, left and right. From there we learned to change costumes and background. We also added way to attack incoming balls with watermelon. It was so awesome to learn to new game development. You can find … More R2D2 – Scratch

We have been learning python for last two weeks, we started with downloading python https://www.python.org/downloads/  and setup IDE pycharm https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ . First we started with HelloWorld as always, Super easy print(“hello world!”) Then moved on to math operations number1 = 100 number2 = 200 print(number1 + number2) Learned order of operation math = 20 + 30 – 5 … More MCC – Python fun

Another successful session completed by Music City Coders, there were 7 new students attended July, 2017 camp. Everyone learned lot and had great fun!!!

What a session!!! We taught 8 kids to build robot and code. Every kid had great time learning and playing with robotics. We sure that they will start learning more about robotics. We also handed over certificates to students who attended this session. Look at few pictures in this page.
