Abstract
The last three chapters discussed the prerequisites for programming a robot using the Robot Operating System (ROS). We discussed the basics of Ubuntu/Linux, bash commands, the basic concepts of C++ programming, and the basics of Python programming. In this chapter, we start working with ROS. Before discussing ROS concepts, let’s discuss robot programming and how we do it. After this, we learn more about ROS, how to install ROS, and its architecture.
