Verify your Setup and Get Started
===========================================

In order to verify your computer's setup, we are going to run a program
from it, and see if the robot answers as expected.

.. note:: Before verifying your setup, be sure that your
    physical robot (or simulation) is turned on.

Firstly, go in the folder of your choice and
create an empty file named "pyniryo_test.py". This file
will contain the checking code.

Edit this file and fill it with the following code

.. literalinclude:: code_snippets/verify.py
   :linenos:


.. attention::
    Replace the third line with your :doc:`Robot IP Address <ip_address>`
    if you are not using Hotspot Mode.

Still on your computer, open a terminal, and place your current directory in the same folder
than your file. Then, run the command: ::

    python pyniryo_test.py

.. note::
    If you are using Python 3, you may need to change ``python`` to ``python3``.

If your robot starts calibrating, then moves, and finally, goes to learning mode,
your setup is validated, you can now start coding!
