I was hoping to find on-line manuals that I could print and read on the john. So far no luck. But what I really need is how to declare variables in C.
For example, I have a sample code that has the statement:
unsigned char
and
unsigned long
What do these mean and do they limit the declaration to integers. What do i declare if I want a floating point?
Also, someone told me I cant do floating point with a Keil Compiler because of licensing issues (I got my copy from Silicon Labs and have just registered it). I will eventually need to do trig functions. What do i have to get (buy) to complete my project?
"Yes, I do Fiber Optics. What do you do?"
I'm just a menial who's done 8051 programming for the past umpteen-plus years.
I don't like to give too much away about myself here because I'd almost certainly be classed as a code monkey :(
I remember seeing one of your articles a while back. Nothing to do with my field, but it was easy to read and interesting.
Well, how 'bout that. A fan.
Thanks for your comments. I'll have to put those in my scrapbook.
I'm at Renco Encoders now doing other strange stuff. Working on a real neat encoder solution. So simple I am surprised no one has thought of it. Well, maybe they have, I just cant uncover it.
Maybe I'll have one last hurrah before exiting ;)
