  NQC tutorial available
 
In my opinion NQC is the easiest way to program the Lego Robots. But people that never programmed before seem to think it is difficult (maybe because it sounds like C). So I decided to write an extensive tutorial on how to use NQC. The tutorial does (...) (26 years ago, 29-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: NQC tutorial available
 
(...) Mark, I use your NQCCC exclusively to program my RCX. Your code templates and help system (especially the last edition!) are superb. I like your setup because it integrates all the necessary stuff right there and the help files are pretty good (...) (26 years ago, 29-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: NQC tutorial available
 
(...) Thanks Mark. I've been somewhat negligent on documentation myself. I've been very impressed with the dedication of the NQC user community.

I have gone through most of the tutorial that posted by Mark Overmars which is extremely helpful. What a good job. Thanks Mark. There is one doubt and two question that I would like to get Mark or other people's attention. When I run the example (...) (26 years ago, 30-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)

Mark, In the section on "Display", you mention "Setwatch()" is available in V2.3. Any guess when this will be available? Thanks, -Phil (...) (26 years ago, 30-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: NQC tutorial available
 
(...) I think Mark is waiting for me to release NQC 1.3 - which is where SetWatch() gets added. In the meantime, you can define it yourself within your source code... #define SetWatch(h, m) asm { 0x22, (h), (m) } Dave (26 years ago, 31-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: NQC tutorial available
 
(...) "if (Random(100) == 0)" used to be a compiler error, but version 1.2 of NQC is smart enough to generate a temporary variable to hold the random number. A trickier problem is Sleep(). Sleep(Random(100)) parses just fine. Since Sleep() is just a (...) (26 years ago, 31-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)
