"This unique C
Programming Course
gives you the knowledge
to create
fully working projects truly easily"
Learn how using this hands-on
PIC Microcontroller C programming
course
designed by a professional engineer.
Hi,
I'm John Main,
If you need a great
start in microcontroller C programming or are frustrated
trying to code your microcontroller project in C then this is
the ideal course for you.

You will also get
information about other course modules and information from this site.
Note:
Your email is safe - it will not be rented or sold (I hate spam as much
as you do).
It teaches you how to program in C by executing fully
debugged code on
'real hardware'.
Course features:
This course:
- Teaches fundamentals
of *practical* C programming.
- Starts from the
very beginning - no coding
experience needed.
- Starts you using hardware in
the very first course
module.
You will learn
the theory and then *see*
the code in action on your hardware
so you
will understand how and why
the C code works.
Learn C in easy stages
One module a day.
You won't have to learn too much at
once as passwords to the
course pages are sent once per day so you will learn C
in easy
stages.
Each module has
been tested on hardware so it's guaranteed
to work.

How can you quickly learn to
use
the
compiler and programming software?
You can learn using the Two Free bonus Videos
that show you the exactly
how to use
the MikroC compiler
and the ICPROG programming software. These each show example
setup followed by the compiler / programer operation.
This means you
will be familiar
with
the applications before you use them so you will quickly learn how to
use the software.
Create a full project
The
final project you make is also a useful
tool – a
curve tracer that you can use to examine component characteristics. Not
only that but you will have created (and understand how to
create) a full C project including:

Why use C in your projects?
Once you have learned C you
can use it in all your projects and you will find it's much easier than assembler
since it uses recognizable words.
Note: The above C source code
generated the assembler output shown - they are exactly equivalent!
I know which I prefer - they both do the same job
but you can see that the second C source code is easy to read whereas
for the first you'll probably have to look at a manual.
In
fact one person who emailed me asked for help on a C project but wanted
to use assembler instead; the assembler
output of the compiler was 20
pages long while the C
source code was only about 3 pages!
When you use C it:
- Is easier to read
than assembler.
- Lets you use less
coding (less coding than assembler).
- Lets you create
projects more quickly (less coding).
- Is structured
(using indents and spaces to see code operation).
In
fact you will be able to re-use
code from your other projects, so you
can start new projects quickly, and since it's
already tested
you don't start from scratch each time.
You
can
also save time in
creating your projects by using code from other
sources (not just related to the PIC - there's an example of this where
I used a better random number generator off the web in the RGB
project).
This
works because C follows the ANSI C standard and means you either
save time or use a
better solution.

Thank
you for the clear and concise
writing
style. It is very easy to
follow
and a good place to start.

Thank you for a very well written C
course. I have read the course
material and a lot of what I have been trying to learn is making sense
after seeing the way it is used in real life.
