If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants - but debt is the money of slaves

Personally I'd prefer to detail cars. VIP car care franchise would be a ripper for not that much cash outlay (I have in the past and am still considering one for the future) I absolutely love working on exotic cars. 300ZX, 3000GT / GTO, MR2, HSV. For the same amount of "hard yacka" with digging those post holes you'd rack tripple the amount of cash.

Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

I guess I would have to use a definition along the lines of:
The study and exploration of ______.
The blank being where ever the interest lies. I do not like to use "the physical world" for the blank because then, things like String Theory and Quantum Computers (maybe) would not fall into the realm of science.
That sounds like the way I write code.Science is what you do...when you don't know what you're doing.

Hi All,
Small comments to social request:
Be helpful otherwise go get a life, have a Beer, etc etc
IF you shift discussion to few newest PICs and print sample codes for old PICs
on this site regularly it will really help.
Working with wide range of PICs on MEL PICBASIC Forum it is the same that walks in wetlands.
Best Regards
Maybe i'm reviving the dead with this post (topic refered), but i like to make a statement in behalf of a lot of people here in the forum, including myself.
The only teacher we will ever have for programming microcontrollers (or computer software in my case) is form "learning the way of thinking" out of code examples found on forums like this or on app notes from microchip in this particular case. No microprocessor or embedded systems degree, or any background in raw computer architecture is loaded on our brains, so there are a LOT of holes to fill in this learning curve and we usually miss something.
The original spirit of languages like PicBasic is to give the chance to our kind of people to learn and be able to use this kind of resources, and with PicBasic they made a good job in that congratulations.
The problem begins when you need to learn more than what the compiler gives you.
Examples of this are starting to use and config the hardware peripherals by hand, specific config fuses that are different for every family of microcontroller, assembler code snippets, interrupt routines, etc..
There is no manual for "what is important to look for using this peripheral" or for "what is the approach to learn this" they are huge learning steps if you are not familiar with the architecture of the chips or with assembler code itself (both a necessity for proper understanding of the datasheets). So our best chance to learn is to find some code example that is sufficiently well commented to know what's actually happening and that it actually works and extrapolate by trial and error.
I've already learnt a lot of the background in the last few years but I completely understand some beginners asking for basic "datasheet config" type questions ,or for help in understanding a little bit of assembler, or using the "X" peripheral.
It's difficult to find that kind of teaching and i'd like to thank every member of the forum that gives their time in answering us with some code snippets or solutions. Your time has helped others to be better programmers, and like in many classrooms there is always some "students" that are just lazy and want just to copy the neighbor but others we just want to learn.
Cheers, and the beers are on me
