    Default Gotchas: A problem that caught me

    HI all,

    Ran into one that stumped me for a while (not like that is so unusual)
    The code snippet looked something like this:
    Code:
          
          for CounterB=0 to 31                                                                                                                                 7
          hserin [ByteData[CounterB]]
          next CounterB
    Code:
          for CounterB=0 to 15
          hserin [ByteData[CounterB]]
          next CounterB
    The first example would not compile, the second one would
    Syntax error on the first line, and NEXT without a FOR on the last.

    After puzzling for way too long, I noticed the slider on the bottom.....
    I found that I had a stray "7" in the first line way off screen to the right. Must have accidentally hit a key without realizing it or pasted where there was already a character.

    Not monumental, but might help someone else save some hair.
    Bo

    Default Another Gotcha

    Not being accustomed to using DTinterrupts, one had me stymied. I kept going through my main code step by step, and everything SHOULD have worked as planned. Finally I realized that stepping through code doesn't INCLUDE interrupt service routines.

    Major duh moment.
