Step 2

Analyzing the map

Even though every map is going to be different, there are still a few things we can take away from looking at one of the maps.

One of the biggest things is that every map is surrounded by the color red on the edges. This will help know when we’ve gone too far.

It may be obvious, but it is important to note that every structure we want to topple is on top of the ground. Again, this may seem obvious, but remember, obvious isn’t a thing for a robot. Analyzing and taking into account these “obvious” things can help us program our solution a lot easier.

Before moving on and starting to code, we need to come up with a plan. How can we create a program to solve this complex problem? We will go over one of many plans in the next page; however, see if you can come up with your own before moving on to the next page.
