How Does It Work?


                  In Lightbot, you guide a robot to work by the following terms:

                     •  Instructions: You give the robot simple steps to follow. These steps
                     are like giving directions to a friend.


                     •  Sequencing: You have to put the steps in the right order so the robot
                     knows what to do first, second, and third.


                     •  Loops:  Sometimes,  the  robot  needs  to  do  the  same  thing  again  and
                     again. This is called a loop, and it helps the robot complete tasks faster.

                  Why is Lightbot Great?

                  Playing Lightbot is not only fun, but it also helps you learn how to think

                  like a programmer. You will practice solving puzzles and figure out how

                  to get the robot to the finish line. It is like being a robot helper and a
                  problem solver all at once.

                  Understanding the Sequence of Event

                  The following sequencing instructions are needed to give commands to

                  Lightbot:

                  1.  Walk Forward: Tell the robot to move forward to the next tile.



                                Walk Forward


                  2.  Turn  90° to the  right:  Command  the  robot  to  turn  right  to  change

                     direction.


                              Turn 90° to the right


                  3.  Turn 90° to the left: Command the robot to turn left to face a different
                     direction.


                               Turn 90° to the left


                  4.  Jump: Make the robot jump over a tile to reach a higher spot.
