Did you have a particular problem you need help with or were you just making a general comment?

Programming isn't that hard once you get the hang of it. It has a steep learning curve like math. One day your trying to figure out 1+1, then the next day they throw x and y at you. Once you understand what x and y represent and learn to think in terms of functions, it's as easy as pi.

Problem with microprocessors is: they do exactly what you tell them to do

instead of what you want them to do!

You'll spend most of your time trying to figure out exactly WHAT you told it to do!

One muy no-no...Keep your robot battery charged when working with code. You'll have an emotional breakdown trying to find out the problem with the code, only to change the battery and find it working fine.

Yes, right now we are trying to program the EDU bot and having problems downloading the program to the interface.

Yes i know, we press the program button and turn the LED orange like it is suppose to be, but when we go to download the program onto the interface the LED resets and starts blinking again.

I'm assuming that you're talking about the Program State LED. It will turn orange when the Program button is pressed. When you start downloading to it, the LED will flash. Is this what you're seeing? What do you see at the loader side? There should be a progress bar that shows the status of your download.

No it just brings up a download error message.
