First Arduino sketch loaded

Stig oz8pz-oz8wsp-oz8wsr All Messages By This Member #41065 开云体育 I too know a very good book, i just get it to my 70. years birthday from my daugters. It is called Beginning C for Arduino, second edition. ISBN 978-1-4842-0941-7. I sit with my PC, the Arduino and the book. I have coded an Arduino for controling the heat in my House a year Ago, that work just fine, but now i learn a lot exstra about using the programing languish never understand. Its a book for both new “programmers” and those that had programmed for some time. Good Luck with programming, it is realy fun, The more you learn, the more fun. 73, Oz8pz, stig in Denmark Sendt fra min iPad Den 2. feb. 2018 kl. 03.20 skrev Jack Purdum via Groups.Io <jjpurdum@...>: toggle quoted message Show quoted text I know of a great book that can help you... :>) Jack, W8TEE From: Charles D.

Jack Purdum #41082 I was at the Software Development Conference (probably mid-1980's) where Bjarne was the keynote speaker. There were about 750 of us there to hear about this new thing his paper was about titled: "C with Classes". (OOP was not widely known, if at all, by any of the programmers.) About an hour and a half later, 749 people walked out mumbling "What the f_@% was that all about?"

Jack Purdum #41083 Agreed. If someone is just getting started with C programming, learn C first. However, if you want to dink around with the libraries, many (most?) are written in C++. That's why the last chapter of my book has A Gentle Introduction to Object Oriented Programming and C++. Obviously, no one is going to teach OOP in one chapter, but it should help someone read what's in the libraries. Indeed, some aspects of C++ are pretty powerful (e.g., multiple inheritance), but rarely needed in our environment.? At the outset, just stick with C.

Arv Evans All Messages By This Member #41085 Jerry I totally agree.? What "class" stuff that is in the Arduino libraries can pretty much be used without having to delve into it.? The rest can all be classic C-language.?

Rod Self #41087 Hi All, I suggest staying away from the Kernighan&Ritchie C book. I used it in the late 70s to learn C. I have long mused that K&R C is the worst example of technical documentation that I have seen. There are much better ways to learn C. I have not seen Jack Purdum's book, but I suspect it is a wonderful book. YMMV, Rod KM6SN toggle quoted message Show quoted text On 02/02/2018 10:12 AM, Arv Evans wrote: I totally agree.?

Jerry Gaffke All Messages By This Member #41091 I guess it depends on how you learn. K&R C? is compact and concise, delving deeply into intracacies that some would prefer to ignore. I found it easy to follow, and engaging enough that it was hard to put down. Reviewers on Amazon like it at least as much as any other C book. Perhaps a bit dated now in that it was written for somebody hovering over an ASR33, though I don't see that as a minus.? You definitely want the 2'd edition, covering the ANSI C extensions of the late 1980's. Best bet might be to find a brick and mortar bookstore that carries it, see if it grabs you. Or perhaps some other book works for you. And give them some business if it does. ?

Vince Vielhaber #41092 "C Made Easy" and the revised version "Ansi C Made Easy" is an excellent book for learning C. Takes you step by step, but when you're learning a copy of K&R nearby is almost a must.

James Lynes #41148 Met Bjarne in a Birds of a Feather session at an OOPSLA(Object Oriented Programming Systems and Languages) conference in the Pacific Northwest. just to further name drop, I also met Ester Dyson at the same conference. Her Release 1.0 newsletter was always a great source to where the software industry was going. Objective C always made more sense to me than C++. James
