Newbie Problem

[djh82uk]

Ok I have done a little programming with Jal, and I want to use Picbasic so I am trying the lite edition.

I want to generate a random number 1-10 and use it to switch on one of 10 corresponding led's.

Can someone tell me where i am going wrong? When i try to compile I get and error "list index out of bounds (1)".

Here is my code so far also.

This is the first time I have played with picbasic, so my code is most probably very wrong, but will help me to learn, please bear in mind that I am not super-intelligent

If you are using PBC then PBP code will not work.

ok, so what do I need to change in the code to make it compile with the lite download of PDS?

Or is it all wrong?

You are on the wrong forum (MELabs Pic Basic) - please try this one (Proton Development Suite)
