  • First Online:
Robot Operating System (ROS) for Absolute Beginners

Abstract

The previous chapter discussed the basics of the Robot Operating System, and in this chapter, you are going to program using ROS. The main programming languages that we are going to use are C++ and Python. We already discussed the basics of C++ and Python in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. Those fundamental concepts can be applied here to start working with ROS. You will see examples in Python and in C++, so you get a fundamental idea about both languages.
