First of all, I created Sample class to represent samples. It has id (Int), carriedBy (Int), rank (Int), gain (String), health (Int), costs (Integer ArrayList) variables. There is a getId method to get the sample id. After that, I created Robot class to represent the robot (me). It has the variables of storage (Integer ArrayList), and target (String).

In the game loop, I created samples ArrayList to represent the samples. If a sample is created, then it will add to this ArrayList. To control and take the best sample, I use this ArrayList called samples. When I am choosing the sample, I check the health value with maxHealth variable in my code. If the health value of a sample is greater than maxHealth value, and if that sample is in the cloud (it is carried by nobody) then I choose this sample as bestSample and its health as maxHealth.

I have molecules array to keep different types of molecules (A, B, C, D, E). And if I need more molecules than I have, I check this situation with neededMolecule variable which is an empty string at the beginning. After this check, if there is molecule needed more, then I go to MOLECULES and collect them; if there is no molecule needed more, then I go to LABORATORY. For these go and connect jobs, I created gotoAndConnect method. It takes module, data, position. (Data may be neededMolecule (if there is molecule needed more), or bestSample id (if there is no molecule needed more)). That method checks if my position is at the desired module, then CONNECT the data; if my position is not at the correct module, then GOTO the module.
