Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kangoroo_robot'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kangoroo_robot

Or clone it from Github

$ git clone https://github.com/htatche/kangoroo_robot    

Run bin/kangoroo_robot and you will be presented with a command prompt.

Kangoroo robot can receive different options to freely move around on a 5x5 table.

• PLACE

This is the first command and it is mandatory to run it before giving any other instruction, it will place the robot on the table with the coordinates and direction that we give it.

PLACE x,y,cardinal_point

Examples

PLACE 1,1,NORTH
PLACE 3,5,EAST
PLACE 3,0,SOUTH

• MOVE

Once the robot has been placed on the map, it is free to move around. With move, the robot will go one step further in the direction he is aiming to.

MOVE

• LEFT

We can rotate the robot 90 degrees to the left so he points to a different cardinal point. This way if he was pointing NORTH he will then aim to WEST

LEFT

• RIGHT

We can rotate the robot 90 degrees to the right so he points to a different cardinal point. This way if he was pointing NORTH he will then aim to EAST

LEFT

• REPORT

The robot will inform you of his current position and direction.

REPORT

Examples

PLACE 1,2,WEST
REPORT
1,2,WEST

MOVE
REPORT
0,2,WEST
