Autonomous control
The ability of a robot to guide itself.
Program
A series of steps that a microprocessor will perform, one at a time, in sequence.
Edit
Using your computer to write the 'C'-language statements that make up the program.
Compile
Converting your 'C'-language program into the machine code required by the Vex controller.
Download
Sending your program to the controller.
Execute
Running your program.
Parameters
Necessary information to the respective command so that it will know exactly how to perform the designated task.
Wait command
Controls how much time is allocated for each operation.
Motor Module
Tells what motor to run and in which direction it should turn.
If statement
Controls if a program enters a section of code or not based on whether a given condition is true or false.
Binary system
Uses only 0 and 1 to represent all values.
Constant
A value that is hard-keyed into the program code and cannot be changed while the program is running.

ENGINEERING
What value of inductance (having zero initial current) corresponds to an open circuit? Explain your answer. Repeat for a short circuit.
ENGINEERING
A car is traveling around a circular track of 800-ft radius. If the magnitude of its total acceleration is 10 $ft/sec^{2}$ at the instant when its speed is 45 mi/hr, determine the rate at which the car is changing its speed.
ENGINEERING
A constant current of 3 A for 4 hours is required to charge an automotive battery. If the terminal voltage is 10 + t/2 V, where t is in hours, (a) how much charge is transported as a result of the charging? (b) how much energy is expended? (c) how much does the charging cost? Assume electricity costs 9 cents/kWh.
ENGINEERING
A machine, modeled as a simple spring–mass system, oscillates in simple harmonic motion. Its acceleration is measured to have an amplitude of $10,000 mm/s^2$ with a frequency of 8 Hz. Compute the maximum displacement the machine undergoes during this oscillation.
