Guys,

I am trying to help my students build their "stair climber".  However, the program I am following from the lego, leads me to a great big headache.  The issue I am having is the "myBlock" program.  There is no explanation, just a block.  My class has no issues except just that little add on.

I have a image if you can help us build "myblock"

You can look into the block if you open it with a double click or if you browse to it with the first configuration tab of the project.

If I understand your question correctly you don't know the function of a myBlock or? If you know text programming languages: it is just a method / function. So you can pack some algorithm (read: a collection of linked program blocks e.g. with the function to follow a line) into a myBlock to create a more modular program.

Thank you for the quick response, 

The program for the "stair climber" is in pdf format, so I cannot click on the block command.   As for the myblock , my understanding its just a short cut, however, I have no idea to create the "short-cut".  I am including the steps:  Please help :)

So the idea is that you first create a program to take one step. Then you 'encapsulate' that program in a My Block. After that you can take steps by looping and including that My Block.

If you go to this LEGO education web page, then click the "view" button, it will take you to a download page. When you click download, it will download LEGO's Education software for EV3 (the file is called LME-EV3_Full-setup_1.4.2_en-GB_WIN32.exe). Once it has downloaded, run the download to install the application. The actual program (rather than a PDF) for the stair climber is available within the app.

Great! That is what a community is meant for! Hope your students will learn a lot from it! What type of education are you involved with?
