A simple and basic question

Your result is :

504.027000 ms ... @ 8.4 µs per loop !!!

3 minutes to get it with MPSIM , as we had explained you ...

You see, simple and easy for an experienced programmer.

Why did you not just do that in the first place?

So my code will be:

Zahl VAR WORD
time_in_us VAR WORD
DEFINE OSC 20
WHILE Zahl < 60000
    Zahl = Zahl + 1
WEND

time_in_us = Zahl * (84/10)

One thing to clarify: Is there a difference regarding the time being elapsed when using BYTE for Zahl instead of WORD?

So

Zahl VAR WORD

is being replaced by

Zahl VAR BYTE

Yes, because comparing 2 words could take 2 comparisons....Check the high byte, if it's equal, then you have to go on and check the low byte.

1) Cause here, we teach people how to catch the fish ... it's not a PbP "Drive in" !!!

as we had explained you ...

2) Cause there was NO answer to what you had asked ... and no way to understand what you wanted to do ...

3) Still no way to understand ... :

Zahl VAR WORD
time_in_us VAR WORD
DEFINE OSC 20
WHILE Zahl < 60000
    Zahl = Zahl + 1
WEND

time_in_us = Zahl * (84/10)

... with this code, "Time_in_us" WON' T be 504 027 ... so, why re-calculate it ???

... I do not joke : with the calculation errors ( roundings ) , the showed result will be ... FALSE !!!


Was I Spiritual enough ???
