Greenoïd #1 - An unexpected encounter
With your friends Hazel and Ash, you happen to come across an old robot…
Coding in the sandbox
You must be logged in to access the sandbox.
As you wander through this forgotten land, littered with roots and weeds, Ash stumbles over a piece of metal. On closer inspection, you realize it's an old robot.
Apparently broken, it's covered in moss and almost completely stuck in brambles. You carefully remove it from its prison of thorns and begin to examine it as if it were a priceless treasure.
On the strange machine's rusty torso, there's a small control screen and an engraved word: “AURA”. This reminds you of a legend you were told as a child, about a goddess named Aura who created Greenoid at the beginning of the world…
You turn the little robot over. On its back is a serial number 7124439656724113 and two buttons. Is it possible to turn on this old machine, which seems to have come straight out of another age?
The serial number is a sequence of digits between 1 and 9.
You assume that if it's an even number, you press the right button. And if it's an odd number, press the left button.
An “L” (Left) corresponds to pressing the left button.
An “R” (Right) corresponds to pressing the right button.
By analyzing the serial number, you need to return the sequence that should enable you to switch the robot back on, e.g. “LLRRLRLRLLRR”.
