The Art of LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Programming 1st Edition, Kindle Edition

Excellent book. Highly recommended !Got a different book to learn about the EV3 in general but that book focused a little too much in trying to program the robot from the on-board screen/button, which is cumbersome and not practical.This book on the other hand is full of great little projects to help kids (or adults like me) learn how to program efficiently. I am 1/3 into the book, and really like it. My daughter is currently reading it and she also enjoys it. The little projects are specific enough that kids keep engaged while learning.We got the kindle edition and my only complaint is that on the really big programs the graphs are not crisp enough to read all the details, but with some effort is doable.

A top-level students can understand this book as written. An average students can understand the vocabulary and sentences, but needs an adult's help in processing the significance of some of the content. I love the EV3 Mindstorms as a platform for teaching introductory programming, and this is the book I would recommend as a textbook. Also, if you are an educator (or new FLL Mentor) and need to learn how to program the EV3s, I would recommend this book. If you are the sort of highly motivated student who begged mom for a LEGO set, this is the book I would recommend to you to learn how to use it. (Technical note: you only need a Core Set to do the programs in the book. However, those with the Home Edition might want to purchase a gyro sensor separately. The book has instructions for both the Home Edition and the Education Edition LEGO sets, but Education Edition purchasers take note, the Home Edition instructions usually come first. It is helpful if a teacher note these cases and warn the students of them).

I think this would be an excellent starting point for anybody that is doing FLL. I think the level of the descriptions and details would work out well with the FLL teams that do not have much experience with programming. The book covers some interesting things that I didn't know - saving data to files for example and then opening it up in EXCEL to get a good idea on what light level to use for line following.

Excellent organization and examples for me to use. It is also a great resource for information on which components work across NXT and Mindstorms. Not all my middle school students are able to read and follow the instructions. If students are using it, I recommend it as a reference book for 7th grade and up.

Very interesting book with systematic approach to introduction into EV3 world. I do like simple robot construction that let you focus on programming and leveraging all sensors and engines.This book is focused more on EV3 robotics than on LEGO Technics mechanics and designs. But that is what I expected and was looking for.

This is by far the best beginner's book on Lego Mindstorms EV3 programming. Even if you do not believe yourself to be a beginner, this book will give you a very solid foundation on which to build your EV3 programming skils. It is based on the Home edition of Lego Mindstorms but is equally valid for the Training Version also. This book far surpasses the books that come with Lego Mindstorms Home Edition. It also surpasses most of the on-line EV3 tutorials that I have seen.

If you have been looking for a book that tells you the full story about the EV3 programming environment, look no further. So many of the other materials on the topic are just random examples and fluffy text that it seems amazing to find a book like this. Truly best of breed -- check it out!

A really comprehensive guide to the programming capabilities of the Mindstorms ev3 set. Lots of projects to follow, clearly laid out and with comprehensive explanatory notes to explain the concepts involved. Importantly, it covers both the Home and the Education sets.I'd thoroughly recommend this book as a must-have for Mindstorms ev3 owners.

Can't comment on book as it is to advanced for me.

Book is good

Excellent for absolute beginners, whetting the developer's appetite for the more advanced material out there ...

Ok
