Book Reviews of LEGO Mindstorms NXT Power Programming: Robotics in C
Book Review: Explains a difficult topic
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book as an experiment because I really wanted to teach my students to use Java on their NXTs. I was surprised by how well the book explains C programming on the NXT and delighted by the many excellent examples. We were able to get a program running on the first day. We did not use but I was impressed by the many excellent, illustrated examples of construction.
C programming is hard for students to grasp and they eventually gave up but this was not the book's fault.
