Looking for resources

[Waltur]

Hello-

I would like to learn more about microcontrollers and low-level code.

I'm pretty new to electronics but was wondering how to learn the basics of programming/how microcontrollers work.

Going back to school is not an option...I came across this Forum on Google and thought I would ask.

Should I buy a kit or textbook or spend time on a forum? Are there any websites that are good for beginners?

This is a hobby and I'm just looking for ideas. Thank you.

Hi,

See the Beginners Sticky at the top of this forum.
Nigels Pic Assembler tutorial is good choice as its a combined software and hardware tutorial
For a current programmer the Microchip Pickit2 or 3 are the ones to buy,
