  random
 
Hi! Back again with more problems. I want to use random() in my programs and looking in stdlib.h it looks like it is implemented. It says: extern long int random(void); extern void srandom(unsigned int seed); When I didn't have stdlib.h included, I (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: NQC and rcx2
 
All the things I've tried work fine. The only thing I find confusing is the events and control of global objects. Could you try to explain how to set-up and use these features?

  NCQ and LegOS
 
I am a newcomer to the mindstorms world, and I have not progressed from programming in the programming environment supplied with the product. Before I start to think about NQC and LegOS, I would like to know a bit more about the added advantages. Do (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RE: DJGPP/DOS legOS Howto
 
Long term, though, I'd like to put everything (or at least links to everything) in one place on sourceforge- it'll make it much easier for newbies. Of course, I suppose the HOWTO has to be the first step to that :( Luis (...) ---...--- "Going to (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Robocup with Mindstorm/ legOS

  Re: Finally able to add asm forth words (long)
 
(...) Yep. But if I have two choices I will always steal from working code over documentation. I will always write code in C first and see what assembler the compiler creates, especialy on a new machine. Trust what already works. -- (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

  Taking the plunge
 
OK I'm about to nervously take the plunge. My code assembles and I'm about to push it off the cliff and see if it flies.

  Robocup with Mindstorm/ legOS
 
Hi all, I am working at the university of Bonn, Germany, and we're currently thinking about using MINDSTORM and legOS to teach younger students about robotics.

  Re: NQC and rcx2
 
(...) I don't know about Lego's plan. As for NQC, there's been hardly any feedback (either positive or negative) on the alpha NQC release. That, plus the fact that I've been quite busy with other projects, has made NQC a fairly low priority since (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Finally able to add asm forth words.
 
Yeah!! After lots of reading and study and experimentation and suggestions from Ralph I finally added a new word to the .asm files. It was a simple word. I just cloned DUP under a different name.
