basics4_plan_execution.cpp

This tutorial executes a plan selected by the user from a list of available plans. A plan is a pre-written script to execute a series of robot primitives with pre-defined transition conditions between 2 adjacent primitives. Users can use Flexiv Elements to compose their own plan and assign to the robot, which will appear in the plan list.
