  Re: How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
Hi Tobias, If you're a computer programmer, I'd definitly suggest using something other than the RCX Code method of writing programs for the RCX. NQC is a nice environment if you know C.

However, if you switch to GP2D12 sensors, and remove the pullup resistors on the (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
(...) Depends how hard you want to work. With LegOS or pbForth, which replace the official firmware, you can program the hardware at the machine level, so you can do very advanced stuff.
