Multiple Robots: The Chase
Problem Statement:
Two robots have been placed on the coordinate grid. Robot 1 is placed facing right at (-5, -5) and Robot 2 is facing left at (5, 5). Robot 1 will have red blocks and Robot 2 has green blocks. You will need to insert two additional blocks for Robot 2 to make the two robots chase each other around a square path. The Non-Blocking blocks for Robot 1 have already been placed. Make sure to add your two additional blocks for Robot 2 to the inside of the repeat loop.
