= Why Use Abstraction =
 
* Makes the program easier to think about
 
* Makes is easier to test programs - we can test small part individually
 
* Makes the code easier to user over and over saving time. We can more easily takes code from one program and use it somewhere else.
 
* Makes code more reliable by allowing us to use the same code over and over.
 
  
= Move the Robot in a Square Demo Code =
 
 
* [https://github.com/edcepp/DeLaSalle/blob/main/DriveInASquareEpp.java DriveInASquareEpp.java]
 
 
== Check Points ==
 
 
# Copy the Drive In A Square program to your robot and test it.
 
# Investigate a simplified outline of the move in a square program to help you understand how to write methods. See [[FTC Drive In a Square Outline 20230112]].
 
# Modify the program to move forward 18 inches, turn left 90 degrees, and move backward 12 inches.
 
# Modify the program to work with 4 motors so you can support the Mecanum drivetrain.
 
 
= Refined Demo Code =
 
 
'''TBD''': Complete code refinements and integrate into this lab.
 
 
* [https://github.com/edcepp/DeLaSalle/blob/main/DriveMecanumEpp.java DriveMecanumEpp.java]
 
 
Simplified PowerUpMotors to us Ticks for distance and velocity. Add GoForward and GoSideways helper methods
 
 
== Check Points ==
 
 
# Compute how many Ticks per millimeter the robot move forward.
 
## Sidesize
 
## Why are they different
 
# Find a web reference computer these values based on Mecadum wheels size and motor configuration
 
# Do the computations and compare with your test results
 
# Measure how well the moveForward method drove the robot straight
 
## How does speed and distance impact
