Read angle of the current motor

[JohnHZheng]

We are now using Python 3. One question is that the LEGO EV3 MicroPython document has class Motor that read angle. The document reads: Methods for motors with rotation sensors angle() Get the rotation angle of the motor. Returns Motor angle. Return type angle: deg reset_angle(angle) Reset the accumulated rotation angle of the motor. Parameters angle (angle: deg) – Value to which the angle should be reset.

How do we get the same information using Python 3? Thank you

Motor.position should do it. It returns encoder pulses, so you can divide by Motor.count_per_rot to get fractions of rotations.

If you want degrees:

my_motor.position * (360 / my_motor.count_per_rot)

thank you very much
