ToyRobot

This Windows Console App was developed using TDD.

Run the App:

  1. Download the code from Github repository.
  2. Open the 'ToyRobot.sln' file on Visual Studio 2019 and build the solution.
  3. Run the project and have fun with TOY ROBOT!

Extra: Open Test Explorer on the menu 'Test > Test Explorer'. Run the tests and make sure they are all passing.

Requirements

  • The library allows for a simulation of a toy robot moving on a 6 x 6 square tabletop.
  • There are no obstructions on the table surface.
  • The robot is free to roam around the surface of the table, but must be prevented from falling to destruction* Any movement that would result in this must be prevented, however further valid movement commands must still be allowed.
  • PLACE will put the toy robot on the table in position X,Y and facing NORTH, SOUTH, EAST or WEST.
  • (0,0) can be considered as the SOUTH WEST corner and (5,5) as the NORTH EAST corner.
  • The first valid command to the robot is a PLACE command* After that, any sequence of commands may be issued, in any order, including another PLACE command* The library should discard all commands in the sequence until a valid PLACE command has been executed.
  • The PLACE command should be discarded if it places the robot outside of the table surface.
  • Once the robot is on the table, subsequent PLACE commands could leave out the direction and only provide the coordinates* When this happens, the robot moves to the new coordinates without changing the direction.
  • MOVE will move the toy robot one unit forward in the direction it is currently facing.
  • LEFT and RIGHT will rotate the robot 90 degrees in the specified direction without changing the position of the robot.
  • REPORT will announce the X,Y and orientation of the robot.
  • A robot that is not on the table can choose to ignore the MOVE, LEFT, RIGHT and REPORT commands.
  • The library should discard all invalid commands and parameters.
