 | | Storing bricks at low temperatures
|
|
Has anyone stored LEGO outside for a long time, and if so, did it have any effect on the bricks? I ask because I'm considering my garage as a suitable venue for my collection. I'm running out of places to store the increasing assortment of pieces, (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jan-00, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.general, lugnet.storage)

(...) PWM stands for "pulse width modulation". The LEGO speed control changes voltage as you turn the knob. An RCX turns the motor on and off really fast but always supplies full voltage. So half speed is a 50% duty cycle of full power, rather than (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

| | Emulating arrays in NQC

Hi all! as I promised earlier, I am posting the code I've written to emulate arrays. I tried to make it general, but it's difficult to do without compiler support. Right now it implements a 32 items array of 4 bit variables. It can be quite easily (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
