So we're learning how to program these robot things in my Engineering class. This is how today went:

Teacher: Today we're going to learn RobotC, which is our programming language for making our robots work through this... *spaces off during a long discussion of RobotC and how it's amazing*

Nerdy Kid: And what language does it come from?

Teacher: RobotC is a branch of the C+ language (first facepalm of the day)

Nerdy Kid: Oh, I know that! (second facepalm)

Teacher: So first we're going to learn using this [really big] book. It has everything you need to know.

*skims through* Contents: If, then statements, variables, functions, timers, built-in functions, whitespace, comments, boolean logic

Teacher: Our first topic will be if-else statements (I swear, it says this IN THE BOOK). If-else statements run the code if something is true and if its not the do what's after else.

Kids: WAT

Teacher: I know it's hard, just bear with me. So first, drag and drop the if-else statement from the list on the left into the text editor on the right. --[[Yes, it's a drag and drop programming language]]

Kid: Where do I put the else at (the else is already preset below if and all the brackets are in place for you)

Teacher: Below if. Now after if in the parentheses we type "forward = true". Then in the brackets we type "speed = 50"

*kid types 'speed equals fifty' (more facepalm)*

Teacher: Now after else in the brackets we type "speed = 0"

The remainder of our hour and a half long class was spent debugging our 3 line code. Errors include literally typing 'equals', kids adding their own brackets, kids not finding forward = true on the drag and drop menu, kids not finding speed = 50 on the drag and drop menu, kids typing things after everything, etc.

Mfw this happens ​> Fake smile

@IHeroyouZero

Who made you a mini-mod. We frown upon those here and therefore shun you. If you stay, you will be cooked at McScripters and served as a warm, greasy meal

The thing is, I'm a regular and you're a non-contributing alt. Btw, challenge accepted.

These are SOOO counter productive.. xD

"Errors include literally typing 'equals', kids adding their own brackets, kids not finding forward = true on the drag and drop menu, kids not finding speed = 50 on the drag and drop menu, kids typing things after everything, etc."

LOL


Tell us what happened at your next engineering class, it's just too funny.

BWAHAHAHAHA now someone is flaunting that he is a regular at a forum and hence he can spam. That's legit right there.

Except this isn't spam. It's about programming which, within reason, Sorcus will accept.

You are criticizing the teacher of your class and trying to flaunt the fact that he knows nothing. Yup, that's legit programming discussion.

Error: Your teacher is stupid. Please consider hiring a new teacher. Thank you, have a nice day! :)

That'll work :P Time to bypass the multiple access locks on changing ANYTHING on the computer.

@aboy

replace internet explorer's shortcut on your teacher's computer to a program that puts a picture of human feces as the backgroud.

The sub we had the class before told us that our teacher had weird background images already. Like nerdy things. Like minecwaft. And memes. Strange for a 40 year old man...
