Also, I am amused that because the firmware doesn't use the (...) (19 years ago, 22-Sep-05, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

Well, at least we're not having to use loops to add things to themselves to (...) (19 years ago, 22-Sep-05, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

It would be interesting to see a real-world processor that only has increment and decrement instructions. I'm thinking the LEGO firmware doesn't support these (...)
