johnh Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I googled "introduction to c programming" and this was the firsthit:http://www.le.ac.uk/cc/tutorials/c/If you've programmed before just about anything should give youan overview of the language, it's syntax, datatypes, etc. Afterreviewing such material download the MIOS c skeleton and startworking through it referring back to the reference material as youtry to understand what you're reading. Get the 'build enviroment'set up and try to build the c skeleton without any changes. Seeif you can load it into the core. Then try and write something tothe LCD. Just stick with it... taking small steps. If you've programmed before the basics of c will come quickly. MIOS doesn'trequire the esoteric stuff.

stryd_one Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Welcome aboard :)Hey if you find any links that you find you use a lot, please let us know.Don't knock BASIC man! GW BASIC and 8088 ASM were my first ever programming languages hehehe Seriously though, programming languages are never all that different. You'll find that once you forget about using line numbers to refer to things, you'll be set, and you will be able to apply similar concepts to your C code.So what have you got planned? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brett Posted April 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I am going to start off with a midiboxLC . I know it isn't for beginners , but I have a bit of electronic experience . And I have not been happy with what is being offered . Eventually i want to develop automation for consoles . The journey begins.Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
