# learning_ros
This repository accompanies the text "A Systematic Approach to Learning Robot Programming with ROS".  This version has been updated for ROS Kinetic.

Code examples reside in folders corresponding to chapters.

This entire repository should be cloned to: ~/ros_ws/src (assuming your ros workspace is named "ros_ws" and resides within your home directory).  To do so, navigate to ~/ros_ws/src from a terminal and enter:
`git clone https://github.com/wsnewman/learning_ros_kinetic.git`
and also clone the external packages used with:
`git clone https://github.com/wsnewman/learning_ros_external_packages_kinetic.git`

Then, from a terminal, navigate to ~/ros_ws and compile the code with the command:
`catkin_make`

If you are installing ROS for the first time, see the instructions here:
[installation scripts](//github.com/wsnewman/learning_ros_setup_scripts)

The scripts located at this site automate installation of ROS (consistent with the version and packages used with the learning-ROS code examples).  These scripts also install a variety of useful tools.
