The book advertised on the cover also comes
with a free version of thier basic complier. The free version will
only work with the 16F876 and 16F876A PICs, but the book has
great information on "basic language" programming.
Thanks for the sites!!
But i would like to ask, how come C is better in programming PIC than BASIC? im kinda new in programming PIC so do forgive my ignorance......hehehe.

C is 'popular' rather than 'better', so it's popularity has resulted in more optimised compilers.
'Best' is assembler though, it's what the PIC itself uses, and is essential to know (to some extent) even if programming in a high level language. The vast majority of code available is assembler, with relatively little C or BASIC code out there.
I am by no means an expert but it is straight forward and does everything I ask of it (with a few lines of assembly where required).
The only way to describe my satisfaction with this peice of software would involve multiple repeated profanities and expletive infixation, that wouldnt belong on a family forum.
Having said that, the only way I can describe how helpful Nigel Goodwin is on this forum involves multiple repeated profanities and expletive infixation, that also wouldnt belong on this forum (although I can PM it to you if you like Nigel).
I had check out those sites and its been a good use to me. thanks!! do practise would still be the best teacher. thanks agian. javascript:emoticon(':wink:')
