Introduction: Lego Mindstorms Calculator
This calculator uses a modified version of one of the Mindstorms tutorial's code to add how many times you press one touch sensor to how many times you press another touch sensor. To subtract, you have to add negative numbers.
Oh and sorry for the poor picture quality, I took everything on an iPhone camera :P

Step 1: Parts
Parts:
Two touch sensors
8 black pegs
2 "L" bars
Mindstorms NXT brick
2 connector cords for sensors
Two touch sensors
8 black pegs
2 "L" bars
Mindstorms NXT brick
2 connector cords for sensors
Step 2: Add the L Bars
Attach the L bars to the NXT with the little peg things.
Step 3: Add the Sensors
Attach the sensors to the L bars with the leftover peg things.
Step 4: Plug the Sensors Into the NXT
Plug the left sensor into port 1 and the right sensor into port 2. I put two longer pegs in the NXT to keep the wires in place, but it won't affect anything if you leave them out.
Step 5: Download Code
Download the 2 files on this page and sync "add.rbt" to your NXT brick.
