Easy C Tutorials

Are there any more tutorials for Easy C? The ones in the manual are very basic. We are coming from Lego and have no C programming experience.

Re: Easy C Tutorials

it's sort of hit and miss. all you really need is basic skills for the operator controlled. It's harder for autonoumous. I just got finished making a motor compensation function. That took about 7 hours. You have to keep trying and eventually something will work. Theres a vex programming tutorial somewheres that i have downloaded to my thumb drive, but i forgot the link.

Re: Easy C Tutorials

For those that may be struggling with programming or don't plan to participate in the autonomous portion of the FVC, there is new programming resource available to you. Brad Miller (FRC-190) working with WPI has produced a 1hr video to help FVC teams prepare for the upcoming competition.

The video is downloadable and covers general programming for the operator and autonomous portions of the challenge as well as other programming tips.

You can access the video files here:
