I've been software-hacking on the RCX, and have started a c++ framework that might be useful to somebody out there. (At least it would have been useful to *me* a couple of weeks ago... :-) Anyway, I've gotten the LCD under c++ control, and I'm about (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Dave and others- I'm actually very interested in using C++ with the RCX. C++ is what our intro CS course is taught in at Duke, and we are looking to snag some of those kids for a robotics course based (tentatively) on the RIS. I had been planning on (...)

(...) If you already know a language, naturally it will be easier to write in that language than one which you are not yet familiar. However... C programming is not any harder or easier than C++. C is "simpler" than C++ -- whether this makes it (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) That is the main issue- I'd prefer to focus on teaching the robotics stuff than teaching C, especially since the students that will be taking the course will be quite proficient in C++ and basically not at all in C. Luis ###...### "One World, (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics)
