C Programming

My robotics team is using a program called C to program the robot... Is there any good sites that teaches it and also, what program do you use?

I want to learn C that programs for moving motors and setting limits for motors...

C is a language, the program used would be the compiler. I use Borland Command Line Compiler for Windows, and GCC for Linux.

A simple search would find you some good C programming tutorials, but here's one anyway. http://www.cprogramming.com

Try www.free-ed.net for some C training. I'm currently going thru the C programming course, maybe starting the C++ stuff soon after. Its a good work-at-your-own-pace kinda thing.

Google is your friend (brought to you in non-forum breaking tinyurl):

I use GCC -- MinGW (with MSYS) on windows and GCC itself on Linux. Both are free, although they have a steep learning curve.

There's a GUI based version though, IIRC. Bloodshed.net ? I think that's them, give it a try.

Just to update about my robotics team language... We are gonna run on Pic C... Here's the details... http://innovationfirst.com/FIRSTRobotics/edu-rc.htm and the programming tool is gonna be Microchip MPLAB IDE. Can someone explain this to me? And anything I can learn?

Hey sorry although this doesnt help you... i was wondering what grade or how is your robotic team realated to ur learning?
A club, school, or something?

im planning on going into becoming a robotics engineer. Sorta like wat ur asking on this site with the programing robots and i liked to design robots. You have any tips , tutorials or anything that i should do to help me get more familiarized with the field???

Thanx before hand sorry i couldnt help you

The site link that you gave says:

It is recommended that new users focus on learning the C programming language's syntax, structure, and programming practices.

So that is where you start.

Here's a link that looks good to me: http://www.lysator.liu.se/c/bwk-tutor.html

There are other tutorials available as well.
