(...) As have I, so when I wanted to build a line-follower, I used a couple of IR detectors in concert with a pair of IR emitting diodes. They were arranged on the nose of the robot as follows: 1 2 3 4 \ | | / Where 1&4 are the IR emitters and 2&3 (...) (27 years ago, 16-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Do you have to know the actual address where "speeda" is stored or can you just use "speeda" inside (...) (27 years ago, 16-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

The best answer would be to take the mAH of the battery, say X=1500 mAH. Find out the current drawn by the RAM say I=5mA. Divide X by I and you get the number of hours of battery life. This is ofcourse assuming that you have a fully charged battery (...) (27 years ago, 16-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
