Current state of this ros-package

• This ros-package contains an src directory and two files (i.e., CMakeLists.txt, package.xml)
• The src directory contains two files that are incomplete ros-nodes:
  1. turtle_go_to_goal.cpp
  2. turtle_go_to_goal.py

Steps to complete this assignment

• Fork this repository into your GitHub.
• Clone the repository from your GitHub into your local machine's catkin worksapce.
• Complete the objective of this assignment.
• Once the objective is complete, push the modifications that you made in your turtle_go_to_goal package to your repository on GitHub.

Objective of this assignment

• Develop the ros-node turtle_go_to_goal with the programming langauge that you prefer (i.e., cpp or python).
  • When you run the ros-node, it should take as input cordinates for the goal position of the turtle.
  • After giving the goal position, the turtle should (1) orient itself in the direction of the goal position, and (2) go to the goal position.
  • The node files turtle_go_to_goal.cpp and turtle_go_to_goal.py are incomplete but provide an initial overall structure and hints.
• Dont forget to check your CMakeLists.txt and package.xml before doing catkin_make.
• Once you successfully run and test your node, fill in the results table.
