What is ChipWits?

An educational system in which you program robots to perform tasks in a variety of envi ronments. ChipWits is designed to develop problem-solving skills by means of a generic, icon-based language called IBOL Once you connect a series of programming icons, you can watch tile program run and look for errors. ChipWits lets you slow down execution or single-step through your program to find flaws in the logic. The system includes several preprogrammed robots that you can use as models when writing your own programs. The IBOL language introduces programming concepts such as operators, arguments, branches, and subroutines bv means of simple pictures.
