I'm having a bad time with the use of containers.  I have an angle-container
and then a container-fork.  I was careful to use a (blue) modifier for both
of them, set the port number on the angle-container and the specified number
to the container-fork.

But that bit of circuitry never works.  Also, I don't seem to get any
reasonable number in the container.  I check the value in the container
using 'Interrogate RCX' and it never corresponds to the value displayed in
the RCX for port 2 where it is connected.

So I have a basic *wrong understanding* about the use of containers as
variables.  Is there anything written anywhere giving some basic discussion
on containers?

I suppose I will find it in Ben Irwin's book when it comes out but...?!  :(

Thanks for your help, Jerry

(...) What version of Robolab are you using? I use Robolab 2.01 and have not had the problems you are describing. As an example of using the Angle Sensor, I tried the program: Empty Container - Blue Zero Angle Sensor - Port 1 Wait 2 Play Sound 5 (...) (24 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
