Functions: Creating a Circle
Problem Statement:
The createCircle function will draw a circle with a radius of 7. Use the createCircle function to draw two circles centered at: (0, 0) and (12, 0). For a challenge, only trace the two circles. 
/* Code generated by RoboBlockly v2.0 */
#include <linkbot.h>
CLinkbotI robot;
double radius = 1.75;
double trackwidth = 3.69;
int count;

// Describe this function...
void createCircle() {
  robot.traceOff();
  robot.driveDistance(7, radius);
  robot.turnRight(90, radius, trackwidth);
  robot.traceOn();
  count = 0;
  while(count < 36) {
    robot.driveDistance(0.6101, radius);
    robot.turnRight(10, radius, trackwidth);
    robot.driveDistance(0.6101, radius);
    count = count + 1;
  }
}
