I was interested in using it as a fun way for students to work with Python. The site is built in WebAssembly and currently supports programming robots in Python or Javascript.<br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Zoom link<br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82854791924" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="">https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82854791924</a></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><div dir="ltr">Meetup link:</div> <div><a href="https://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/events/zvpphlycchbrb/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="">https://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/events/zvpphlycchbrb/</a></div><br><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">BIO<br><br> <div><span>Anton is a freshman at the University of Chicago studying Mathematics

design, and Rinzai Zen.<br></span></div><div><br><span></span></div>ABSTRACT<br><br> <div><span>Robot Rumble is an open AI competition website that Anton started during
his junior year of high school. Developers code a robot function in
Python and Javascript, and then this function is run for a team of
robots in a grid-based arena to determine the winner. This talk will
begin with a small tour of the architecture that makes Robot Rumble
possible, and then will proceed to an overview of current and future
development plans. Special attention will be payed to the potential
applications of Robot Rumble within education, particularly in high
school classrooms.<br></span></div><div><br><span></span></div>Agenda:<br>6:45 - Introductions, chat<br>7:05 - Announcements + CodeDay spiel<br>7:30 - Talks start</div><br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr">Lan<br></div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
