Nina and her experimenters investigate how robots work, with help from Belle the neuron. They discover that robots are computers, and although they seem to know what they're doing, they can't think for themselves. They need instructions to follow, and these instructions are given to them by humans. The instructions can be changed if we need the robot to do something different. The people who write instructions for robots are called computer programmers or 'coders'.
