Challenge 2: The Actual Night Before

I had thought that I was ready for the competition today, but I wasn't. When I had tested out my robot on the final day of class before the weekend, it had seemed to work fine. However, when I ran the program this morning, something went wrong. The main problem was that the battery seemed to have lost power, and thus my robot could not operate as it was supposed to. To solve this, I changed the power level in my program. Despite solving this problem, I still was not content with my program. It seemed to work only conditionally, when the dark line was distinct enough. I solved this by adjusting the percent value in the wait for dark and wait for light icons in my program. Hopefully, my robot is now fully ready for the competition.
