== Background Information ==
; What's special about it?
: MyFirstRobot is very similar to the default code (located in <code>robocode/templates/newrobot.tpt</code>) when creating a new robot through the Robot Editor. The only differences are the contents of the [http://robocode.sourceforge.net/docs/robocode/robocode/Robot.html#onHitByBullet(robocode.HitByBulletEvent) <code>onHitByBullet()</code>] and [http://robocode.sourceforge.net/docs/robocode/robocode/Robot.html#onHitWall(robocode.HitWallEvent) <code>onHitWall()</code>] event handlers.

; How competitive is it?
: It is the fifth-best [[Sample Bot]] in [[MeleeRumble]] (after [[Walls (robot)|Walls]], [[Crazy]], [[SpinBot]], and MyFirstJuniorRobot). It ranks at #379 out of 399.

== Strategy ==
; How does it [[Movement|move]]?
: It moves in an [[Oscillator Movement|oscillating]] "seesaw" [[Pattern Movement|pattern]]. It moves forward 100 units, then backward 100 units.

; How does it fire?
: It attempts to fire a 1.0-power bullet whenever it scans an enemy.

; How does it [[Dodging Bullets|dodge bullets]]?
: When hit by a bullet, it turns perpendicular to the bullet. This logic is quite bad, as the angle-to-turn is not normalized, and the robot stays in the same spot while turning.

; How does the [[melee]] strategy differ from [[one-on-one]] strategy?
: No difference.

; What does it save between rounds and matches?
: Nothing and nothing.

== Additional Information ==
; Where did you get the name?
: It's a very basic robot.

; Can I use your code?
: Yes, it is released under the [http://robocode.sourceforge.net/license/epl-v10.html Eclipse Public License v1.0].
