    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.

    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.
