Robot Control

A simple application to simulate a control system for robots. It reads a robot's initial position, parses the input and then asks for a list of commands for the robot to perform.

The first input is expected to be the robot's initial coordinates: the direction it is facing - North, East, South or West - the position in the X axis and the position in the Y axis - both betwen 0 and 99. If no input is entered or the pattern char number number is matched, then the robot's position will defaults to N 0 0.

The second input is a set of commands - M to move, L to turn left and R to turn right. Each command may be followed by a number of times to perform it. So the command set M8L2M3R will move 8 times, turn left twice, move 3 times and turn right once, as if there is no number after a command, it defaults to 1.
