Lesson: EV3 - "Logic"

Overview: 
The goal of this lesson is to explore using logic to control loops in the Lego MINDSTORMS EV3-G program. Students will work through the "Logic" lesson in the EV3 Trainer product from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Academy.
Objectives: 

Students will be able to:

1. Describe the advantage of using logic to control loops

2. Explain how a logic-controlled Loop Block can be used to implement a more sophisticated wait-for function

3. Explain the operation of the "Compare" function in a Sensor Block's data wire node

4. Explain the role of each parameter in a Logic Block

5. Write an EV3-G program for a robot which uses a logic-controlled Loop Block to implement a wait-for-mutiple sensors function
