Hello,
Just for fun, I thought it would be interesting to
do hobby like ada programming on robots. From searching
google, most I got was references to using Ada for lego
mindstorms. That seems like fun, anyone have experience in
this?
Here are some of the links for Lego Mindstorm:

2) http://www.usafa.af.mil/dfcs/bios/mcc_html/adagide.html
3) http://www.usafa.af.mil/dfcs/Ada_Mindstorms_manual.htm
Now if only I could program a Robosapien in Ada to
do stuff, that would be neat :)

Robosapien with a camera and light:

Any other available fun ada programming with robotics?
Looking for fun in programming that isn't actually programming
something useful, like corewars (http://corewars.sourceforge.net/).
Hope this wasn't off-base with this, but all programmers
like to play in programming that isn't "work"? Plus, robots are
cool.
Thanks,
Chris
