Wow! Have you read John Iovine's book? Well, I got the program from his book "Pic Robotics". Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the <bold>William Gray Walter</bold> whom you're referring to passed away in 1977?

Right, which would have made it hard to have written something in PBP.Originally Posted by scaenix
But he did make the original "Turtle" robot that supposedly John based it on.
Got the .LST file, and it's worse than I thought. You have PBP version 2.03. (extremely old)
If you look at the version history
http://www.melabs.com/support/upgrade.htm#History
version 2.04 corrected a problem in 2.03 ...
IF..THEN..ELSE..ENDIF didn't always generate GOTO macro.
And as I look through the .LST file ... Every IF statement has an error.
Can't imagine how PBP even got off the ground with those kinds of errors.
Sorry, I don't see any way to make it work with 2.03

The IF...THEN... might not generate a goto macro like he has it in the program:Right, which would have made it hard to have written something in PBP.

if x>255 then skp
but how about
if x > 255 then goto skp
It sounds logical anyways...and I don't see the word 'goto' in any of the if/then statements

Logical Indeed!
Good thought skimask.

Well, thanks anyway..our time in replying to the posts really helped. I already got the code compiled using PBP 2.46. Please don't ask me how I did it, just let me tell me that it really took my ingenuity to work..hehe. And with regards to the unfairness of the HEX file, I understand your situation and because of that, I became more resourceful in finding ways to compile my program without using any illegal credit cards or spending a dime. hehehe.. I hope we talk again on programming topics man! More power to you!

I don't think so!I hope we talk again on programming topics man!
Hackers.... pffft.

Yep, and while he's at it, maybe he can run downtown and grab a whole bag of 'no help' from me either...I mean, really, a $25 upgrade, and yet buying parts to make stuff...Jeeze...

Well man, pls read my reply to the post. I didn't know people in this forum could be so judgmental. Judging me by my words without asking me what they mean...now what could you call that?
|
You told us ... "Please don't ask me how I did it,"
I don't know how you could have done it legaly, so I have no other choice but to assume it wasn't.

Well, I double-dawg dare you to give me or others a feasible, reasonable, logical, and legal explanation as to how you 'got the code compiled using PBP 2.46' and 'became more resourceful in finding ways to compile my program (hehehe)' when you stated and provided proof that you had PBP 2.03 (legally or not) and didn't have the means or funds to acquire a more recent version, or at least (with validating receipt or other suitable proof-of-purchase paperwork) the much cheaper upgrade.

hacker?
no man, im not what you think I am. Anyone caught hacking in my country would be fined for $2000 and as I have said, I don't have money to set up a credit card account, so how much more pay for $2000!
