  1. What PBASIC commands did you learn in this reading assignment? List AND define them.  Where can you look up more commands?

I learned the following commands:

  1. DATA: This command represents the data item.
  2. DEBUG: This Command is used for output data.
  3. DEBUGIN: This command is used to input data.
  4. END: This command ends the programing cycle.
  5. PAUSE: This command delays the program for a certain number of Milliseconds.

Additional book resources are included with the BASIC Stamp Editor Software as PDF files. These books are a good source of information about regarding more Commands.

 

  1. Explain what you should do with your Boe-Bot at the end of your programming session when you are leaving for the day? (hint: 3-position switch, batteries)

When we are done with the programming session, we should disconnect the power. This will ensure for the batteries to last longer. Move the 3-position switch to position-0 by pushing it to the left.
