Multiplication on a PIC??
I am still not sure how the math functions work on the PIC level -- so much different than in say 'MS Excel'....
I have a value (address) which is ranging from 0 to 64,000.
I want to compute and display the %age of memory full. Pretty simple.
(Address/64000)*100 = my_value
If Address = 30,000, then my_value = 46.88 ..
However, in my PicBasicPro world, the formula
(Address/64000)*100 nets me '0'....
I want to be able to display on an LCD -
Memory: %46.8
Figure using the my_value dig 2, my_value dig 1,".",my_value
might do it, but alas.. nothing..
What's the trick? (Yes, I've read the manual.. I am not strong in math and it does not make much sense to me)
Help!
Tom
