HB for science project?

Hello,

Recently, I have been thinking about using a HandyBoard for my science
project in High School. My project will involve the writing of algorithms,
and I was planning on programming in C. I have been using the Basic Stamp II
(www.parallaxinc.com) for awhile, however, since it uses Basic language, I
don't think it is really a good choice (Is Basic any good for programming
high- level algorithms?..I never really used Basic for complex algorithms).
However, the price for the handy board is fairly expensive and I don't think
I can afford it right now. So my question is:  Are there any other PICs that
use C language and that are approximately < $150? If yes, could you please
send me more information. Thank you very much.

(...) I'm afraid that I'm not qualified to recommend any PICs, but I do know about programming. Basic can be used to implement fairly complex algorithms, but it's not easy to use it for the really tricky data structures, and it would be almost (...)
