Starting Project
Check Your Understanding:
1. What happens when you place a Switch inside a Loop?
The robot runs in a circle until told to stop
The robot makes a decision once, then repeats the result many times
The robot makes a decision many times, taking whatever action is appropriate each time
You cannot place a Switch inside a Loop
2. When a Switch is placed inside a Loop…
Both the Switch and Loop operate normally, but the arrangement is useful
The software interprets the Switch+Loop structure as a special construct

Maze Runner
The simple behavior you wrote in the video can be used as a very simple maze solver!
Build a maze for the robot, made up of square floor tiles.
If you don't have floor tiles
, use 30 cm squares.
Adjust your Forward movement to go one tile per movement, rather than 3 rotations.
What happens?
The robot will perform its move-or-turn behavior in each tile, eventually solving many simple maze configurations!
