AVR-Chat

If you are inexperienced in programming and do not want to start with
the C language, then rather than BASCOM for the AVR, may I suggest
this: www.basic.com. The reason: That BASIC is much like Microsoft's
Visual Basic and other structured BASIC compilers. These are logically
designed and ease the transition later to C or C++. Conversely, BASCOM
may tend to teach bad coding habits. ZBasic.net is the most rapid way
to get going with embedded micros.

But really, IMO, the best way to start embedded software programming
is to first learn the fundamentals of C using a freeware SIMPLE C
compiler for a PC where you don't have to struggle with the embedded
microprocessor yet. Then study the assembly language examples for the
AVR, then study others' C. Then modify someone else's C code to learn.
There are lots of examples of ASM and C on avrfreaks.net, in the
"projects" section.

you.do i start with codvision or bascom?which one is better for a
electronic student?which one is easier?what is your reasons?beside i
know a littele C(language) but i dont know basic at all!.maby
codvision is good for me.what is your suggestion?thanks a lotMona
