PIC basic pro its very easy

Hi all,

In order to follow a learning path I suggest to proceed as follows:

1) Pic Simulator Ide from Oshonsoft: Plenty good Basic compiler and a great simulator. Generated code can be tested in the simulator or in any external development system. Nevertheless has poor documentation (though enough!!)

2) Once familiar with 1, move to Pic Basic Pro to take advantage of what you have learned before, as well as the new commands and features. Better documentation but not great.

3) Once familiar with 2, move to Proton. Even more powerfull compiler, more compact code (I guess) and similar quality of documentation as PBP.

After this process, moving to MikroE is no problem at all and it has by far the best documentation.

In all cases you have available very nice examples to learn by doing, altought you will have sometimes to make changes to adapt to your particular development system hardware.

regards.
