(...) No, the Lego GUI software and NQC both produce code for the same target -- a simple interpreted virtual machine implemented in the firmware. I have never looked at the code produced by the Lego GUI, but I can't imagine it would be that much (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Hmm. This question seems to have gone the way of my PC-->IR Tower cable question. Let me try to get at the point that most interests me--what is the difference, at the RCX level, between programs coded in NQC and programs coded in RCX Code. Is the (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
