How+to+enter+data+into+Raptor+from+a+notepad+file

There are 8 videos on youtube demonstrating how to create Raptor programs. Here is a link to video #3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Qx2w2CDKrk

If something he shows does not work, go to the Raptor HELP and there might be a slight change on how to do it. I noticed this with what to type into the call box (in order to have a file enter the data). He showed to enter : Redirect Input ("file.txt")

But I had to put an underline in there, like this : Redirect_Input ("file.txt") You don't put *file*, but the name of your file (with the data you want entered.)

Videos #1 and #2 show how to make a program to find the area of a circle (Like we did in class), and also, how to find the distance between two points. That second one looked complicated, but it wasn't. You just have to know to use the notation "sqrt" with parenthesis, to serve as your radical sign.

I'm learning a little bit from these videos, which then help make class work not seem so overwhelming. Patty Nemeth
