LEGO Mindstorms NXT-G Programming Guide




Great book for beginners trying to understand the programming techniques used with LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0.

NXT LCD Screen - 100x64

The LCD screen has a horizontal resolution of 100 pixels and a
vertical resolution of 64 pixels. This simply means you could place 100 small dots across the
screen and 64 small dots down the screen. Values actually start with a zero, so the range of
coordinates for X are 0–99, and for Y, the range is 0–63.
