Using Roboblockly to Solve Simple Mathematical Expressions
Problem Statement:
Modify the preplaced block to set a variable to the sum of square root of 225 and 5. Then input that variable to a driveDistance() block to drive linkbot forward. Finally, print out the output as "Variable is __, which is the sum of sqrt(225) and 5. 
/* Code generated by RoboBlockly v2.0 */
#include <linkbot.h>
double variable;
CLinkbotI robot;
double radius = 1.75;

variable = sqrt(225) + 5;
robot.driveDistance(variable, radius);
printf("variable is %g , which is the sun of sqrt(225) and 5\n", variable);
