Do you still have this put together?

[ronaldmcrae]

@gregothelego123 Yes, the machine is still built @ February 2011

Is NXC exclusively for the NXT? Do you need the script to be pre-compiled or do you directly upload the source code?

[ronaldmcrae]

@Lizzardman666 NXC is a C-like programming language that is compiled on a PC (or Mac). The language is very much like standard C with a few extras that are NXT specific like motor control commands, sensor reading functions etc. The compiler creates an executable code file that is downloaded to the NXT brick. The file can be run by the standard NXT firmware, the same one that runs programs created in the NXT-G graphic language.

@GameBoyColorNerd Policeman to Robber1 and Robber2 - Nice job, but shame it only works from tokens, so there's no real money you can use to pay your lawyers with.

...I'm 10 and i really want to build something like this but I doubt I have the abilities to program this. Maybe my dad could help me since he knows how to do this stuff.

How many tries did it take to get the jackpot, or did you cheat?
