input command (newbie question)

[Darrel Taylor]

Hi kctan,

Nothing wrong with the first example. Except there's no GOTO at the end to form a loop. (but you probably just missed it with the cut&paste) You might want to try it on a real chip, instead of a simulator.

However, in the second example.

x=0
while porta.0 =1 and x = 10
    portb.0 = 1
    x=x+1
wend

The "while" will never execute, because x = 10 will never be True.

Also, the code shown would be for PicBasic Pro, Plain PicBasic doesn't have a "while" command.
