: Hey,
: I'm new to this competition and the first time I ever looked at the PBASIC code was two days ago. Anyway, how do you accurately calculate the loop speed (the length of time each pass through the program takes) in PBASIC. My team and I are planning on using the Gyro and it requires this information. Thanks.

. Each time the OI sends a package of information, a packet number is assigned. Each time the RC receiver is kept waiting to receive a packet, it starts a timer, which appears to overflow for large amounts of time wasted. The results of the timer are available as delta_t.

. Into the default program, adjusted to allow variable "delta_t", I inserted, after the toggle 7 statement, "Debug home,dec delta_t,cr" and "Pause(x)". For 250
