BTW, what does the datalog *store*? Numbers? Events? Anything?


numbers.  It can only log timers, sensors, variables, and the system
watch.  When a value is logged, its source is also logged.  For example,
AddToDatalog(Timer(1)) adds the current value of Timer 1 to the log and
also stores that this entry came from timer 1.

If you log anything other than the above named sources (for example a
constant), the value is first moved to a temporary variable, then the
variable is logged.

You can use it for data collection experiments, or to let a robot create
a "transcript" of what it does.  Not really useful in isolation, but it
does provide a nice way for the RCX to collect a bunch of data for
future analysis by a host computer.

If only the RCX could read it's own data...
