| Hi! I think many of you wonder what results you get with the command OutputStatus(OUT_x). I have tested it and here are the results: SetPower | Float Fwd | Float Rev | Off Fwd | Off Rev | OnFwd | OnRev ---...--- 0 | 0 | 8 | 72 | 64 | 136 | 128 1 | 1 (...)

Well, lets see..... any variables declared outside a function are by (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| NQC is definitely sticking with its C heritage with respect to semi-colons. Elisabeth mentioned fancier math and IP features. Neither of those seem possible when you consider that the compiler has to generate code that runs on the LEGO firmware (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
