 | | Just some really basic questions... —Jeff Small
|
| | | Okay, I'm really new to the whole NQC thing and have visited Amazon and ordered a couple books, but I've got some rather high level, I guess for lack of a better term, questions... I can store up to three program in my RCX. Correct? What's the best (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Your choice. (...) Sort of. Computer to RCX control is (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|
| | | | Okay, cool, so I get 5 slots (my bad...I knew that too...I don't know *why* I kept saying 3) and the TOTAL space I can use is 6k? Does that include the datalog feature? Can you pass variables into other programs? How do you use these 'Codes (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Based on the code number, it can perform previously defined tasks (complex tasks too, if you like) (...) ... Don't know. More complications, I'd say.

Well if you can keep all the code in one program it's easier. But you get 32 (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | | | (...) Dean, I am not sure that this is correct what you write about global variables. As far as I know, the followoing is correct: - 32 global variables are only valid WITHIN one program slot. - Within this slot, all tasks, functions and subroutines (...)

If you would do this: SLOT 1: int testvar1 = 1; int testvar2 = 2; int (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
