Lesson Requirements
- Have your improved robot from Day 7 ready to modify
- Keep a notebook or whiteboard nearby for planning
Lesson Outcomes
- Sketch out a full strategy using flowcharts
- Brainstorm movement and survival tactics
- Refactor existing code to implement your new plan
Day 8 is all about Strategy Design. Grab pen and paper to sketch ideas before jumping back into code.
Agenda
- Plan robot behavior using flowcharts. Map out states and transitions.
- Brainstorm survival strategies beyond attacking. Think energy management, dodging, and situational awareness.
- Refactor your robot for cleaner performance using helper methods and clear naming.
We focus on design first so your next code iteration is intentional and efficient.
What are Flowcharts?
Flowcharts are step‑by‑step maps that illustrate decisions and actions. They help you plan your robot’s behavior before writing code.
