converting programs~

[skimask]

yea...i DUN want to be spoon fed but that much of information i manage to think of myself. By the way, I'm learning to use a pic16F877 now since my lecturer got me one.

Which is a fair distance from a PIC18F442/452...

Learning the MPLAB IDE ver 7.50.

Also outdated, latest version is 7.61 (maybe 7.62 by now)

im a 18 yr girl

Don't matter...

who is an extreme noob in programming.

Then pick up an 'extreme noob' type project and work your way up.

I dun think i can be as pro as you are...

Time will tell now won't it...

if not i would'nt have asked for help here! if that is spoon feeding to you then be it. I'm very fine with it.

Good, because I haven't seen anything that you have written yet...just copies of stuff you want converted.
Show us something that YOU have written, and when it doesn't work, ask the question Why...

oh..i would not have choose such a difficult proj (but i noob) if i have a choice..
I was GIVEN it.
and ya...i'll try to learn and if there is still qn I'll ask WHY.
n for ur information, i tell u im a girl so u dun have to say he/she.
geezz..

You were GIVEN this? As a first project or what?
Elaborate a bit on what the code is supposed to accomplish...I know you said it's for sleeping walking/pressure sensor/whatever...
What does the circuit this is connected to look like?

[sanguine]

YES!!
oh my..do u thing I'm so crazy as to start of learning mct by trying to convert other people program? That will be like learning to run before i know how to walk.
this is my first project in mct..it's also my final year project!
u want the proj brief? hah..i'll tell u.

some patients do slp walk
so this particular hospital wants us to make the sole of the shoe with sensors.
Once the pressure increases by the walking patient, the buzzer will sound.
This is what the program does, it processes the reading then decide if it wants to raise an alarm..

I don't have any "look like" picture for you

MCT = ???

..it's also my final year project!

I hope you didn't pay good money for that course... How many years do you have to go thru to get to a 'final year' anyways?

You mean just like you wrote in post #1?
So far, all you've done is describe what you want the end result will be.
What kind of sensors do you plan on using? How do you plan on reading those sensors?
Ok, you'll use a PIC16F877A... Are you planning on using straight assembly in MPLAB IDE to program this?
What do you know about programming in general? Assembly? PICs? Electronics?

microcontroller technology

lots of money...have you heard of POLYTECHNICS IN SINGAPORE?
yea..im in one of them. 3 yrs course, but they teach u different modules regarding ur course. graduation ends with exam n a final year project.

yes...i meant that. The sensor part will be briefed by the lecturer in the later part. We have to get the program working first! yea..i thought of using MPLAB because im ONLY taught that and moreover the syllabus only requires us to learn PIC18F452 and basic programming like displaying msg on LCD screen. they DON"Y teach us anything else..other PICs or what..nothing

Should I have?

Sounds to me like you should first learn how to make the standard 'blinky LED' type project and work your way up to your 'final project'.
