Lists to simulate databases (OshonSoft Basic).

Hello; for those who need or want to experiment with lists, I leave you some libraries.
With these libraries it is possible to simulate small databases, with all its elements for its control, such as creation, search, substitution, deletion of records, etc.

For example: by adding a small menu (display and keyboard) you can manage the list of telephone numbers for access control with a garage door by adding the control of a gsm module, or also with radio modules.

To work with lists efficiently you need to use pointers. So I leave in the example how to get the memory address of a variable at runtime.

For any questions you can ask.

It's really fun to see how the value registers change when the simulation is activated.

Hi D,
I'm very interested in this, but I'm busy just now, I'll watch your thread, and try to join in later.
Cheers, C.
