Hypothesis

The two main components of a solid hypothesis are A: that it applies to a problem statement, and B: that it is testable. For example, if I am contemplating ways to enhance my test performance I may i may say that if i use black pen as appose to pencil i will wright faster. That statement pertains to my problem and is testable, making it a solid hypothesis. Feel free to submit any hypothesis you may have, I'd love to read them!

Progress Update

  • Now that all of the gearing parts we needed have arrived the assembly of our robot is coming along smoothly, however, I can't say the same is true for the programing side of things. Our test of the robot's coding this past Wednesday ended in frustration as the robot did not respond to any of our controller commands. We are currently reviewing and revising the code and hopefully we will have enough success for me to post the third test drive video. For anyone who may have a similar issue within their project i would recommend staying calm, reviewing all possible causes of error and fixing them one at a time in order to determine the root of the problem to both fix and prevent future complications.
