Okay, but with all do respect Mr. Sazrocks, I have previously coded and it seems like I have a good understanding and basis of C++.

22

I do not mean to offend, but the way that you wrote that ā€œcodeā€ makes it very clear that you do not

23

But I was just copying the code from early suggestions I can show you my actual code which is not complicated, but at the same time does not show I am a begineer with C++

You might do something like this:

led <name> = led(Brain.ThreeWirePort.<port_letter>);

task(main){
    <name>.on();
}
26

Oh okay, thank you so much I really appreciate it.

Mr. TaranMayer your suggestion did not work. Do you want me to show you the errors that occur when I types in your code

28

Sureā€¦

@bossasawsome272 go ahead and post it

29

Nevermind I figured it out. What I did was use your code and then created a variable. I mean that is probably one way to do it. I am going to try and compile the code and see if it works

30

If you donā€™t mind me asking, could you post the code you had anyways?

31

Yeah sure give me one second. By the way the code worked

32

I made some edits and you were right most of your code was correct

Uh, I just looked through the project you sent andā€¦ you definitely need to go learn actual c++. That was painful to read.

Also there are a crapton of weird things that make no sense. Why are you setting a motor to spin at 300% power? That doesnā€™t work.

34

Actually it does I just tested it. I just wanted to see how fast v5 motors can go. I am not keeping the value I was just curious.

35

Iā€™m more concerned about other things in this code than thatā€¦

He defined autonomous() inside the main loop

36

Generally speaking the fastest anything can go is 100% of its max speed.

37

Respectfully, your code shows the opposite of what you intended. I strongly suggest that you go though some basic C++ tutorials before continuing to program your robot. It will greatly benefit you to properly understand C++ concepts when you go to debug your code and made it do what you indended.

Me and my friend was working on something I just needed to code the base and led lights
