  Re: where to buy individual parts?
 
(...) Beware! A normal serial cable, with the attachment screws on each side of the D-shell, doesn't fit down the recess on the back of the tower (or at least, mine doesn't). regards, Ian SMith (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: where to buy individual parts?
 
One more thing, this is why I am going to move to USA from Japan because I can buy LEGO in cheapest price and fast way, then I can have a big place to test my RCX Controlled LEGO Train Projects, some of them need over 5m x 5m, I have no way to debug (...)

  Re: Can I use LegOS with CyberMaster?
 
(...) That is not possible, the Cybermaster has the firmware in ROM and very little (a few hundred bytes) RAM. (...) It doesn't. (...) The only one is NQC. Jürgen (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Can I use LegOS with CyberMaster?
 
I have CyberMaster and want to program my unit in C++. I use Linux platform. How does the command for Mindstorm work on CyberMaster? Is it other program that I can use? rik (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  legOS on Mac OS X
 
Has anyone successfully installed legOS on Mac OS X? The OS has a FreeBSD UNIX-based layer, called Darwin, so I've heard that it shouldn't be too hard. Only, I'm finding that it is... My UNIX experience isn't vast, so I feel like I've tried (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Compiling or linking problem
 
I am having a problem compiling any program. I'll use helloworld.c that comes with legos as an example.

  Re: floating point operation
 
(...) I suspect that when you look at the assembler code produced by the compiler you will find in the first instance it was able to optimize the FP multiply out of the inner loop since it didn't depend on the loop induction variable.

  Re: floating point operation
 
(...) I should clarify that this is true for the first version only. For some reason, the compiler does not optimize the second version in the same way. Anyways, what I see in the disassembly for the first version is a loop to 100 inside a loop to (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: floating point operation
 
(...) Compiler optimization? At least, a disassembly of similar code showed me that that seemed to be the case. The compiler can see that t is not used.

  floating point operation
 
I did some experiments with floating point operations and I was surprised when I tried this: int main(){ long t1; int i,j; float t; t1 = sys_time; for(j=0; j<1000; j++){ t=0.06; for(i=0; i<100; i++){ t=1.7*t; } } lcd_int((sys_time - t1)/1000); (...)

  where to buy individual parts?
 
Hi, My school currently has a robotics course that uses the RIS kits and LegOS. We're trying to expand the size of our class, and consequently need additional parts (and replacements for missing/broken parts) I've looked around on the lego homepage (...)

  Sound driver and implementation
 
I found the sound driver and implementation in old version (0.2.0 below) is different from current version, I am not famlair about music and sound generating concept, does anyone give me some explanation? Thanks a lot! Zhengrong (23 years ago, 20-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
