Using FOR..NEXT to build a small table

I'm looking for a code efficient method to build a small table during runtime.

Although I’ve looked at mel PIC BASIC Pro, FAQ, Code Examples and PBP Extensions I haven’t found an answer; albeit, I may have overlooked an answer.

Here is the code example I’ve started even though it doesn’t compile.

‘--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
highpres1 var byte
highpres2 var byte
highpres3 var byte
…
highpresn var byte
‘------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if pres > 1700 then ‘voltage from pressure transducer
high hiled ‘led on to verify that pressure > 1700
for i = 1 to n step 1
adcin 4, highpresi ‘the ‘i’ at the end of highpres (i) is intended to
‘identify ‘successive variables
next i
else
endif
‘-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question: How can ‘i’ be used to identify successive variables without extensive code?
Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,
You need to create an array to store the readings in, this is untested but here goes:

Code:

---

n    CON 5            ' Number of sample
Readings VAR [n]  ' Create array of size n
i VAR BYTE
 
' Get values
For i = 0 to (n-1)        ' Take n readings
  ADCIN 0, Readings[i]
  Pause 10
NEXT
 
' Display values
For i = 0 to (n-1)
  HSEROUT ["Reading ", #i, ": ", #Readings[i],13
Next

---

/Henrik.

Can't get my dumb phone to select for quote, but you will need a closing bracket in the hserout line after the 13. 13]
(not henriks day for brackets ;))

No it certainly isn't...thanks for spotting that!

Henrik:

Thanks for the reply although some delayed
