[...] NerdKitsA nice idea by a couple college students to sell kits for learning how to use microcontrollers. They “guarantee that you’ll get your first program written and running”. Unfortunately they don’t have a USB version yet. Sort of a homegrown alternative to EasyPic4. [...]

@vincent
Thanks I’ll have to take a look at PICAXE too when I get a chance.

Try PICAXE. It’s much cheaper and low learning curve.. :)

@HArdik
Sorry this took a while. I’ve been traveling. The EasyPic4 comes with a bunch of example programs.

Here’s an example out of that file (they have several more examples for the 7 segment display).

Let me know if I didn’t answer your question.

#include "Display_utils.h"


unsigned short i;

void main() { INTCON = 0; // Disable PEIE,INTE,RBIE,T0IE PORTA = 0; TRISA = 0; PORTD = 0; TRISD = 0; do { for (i = 0; i<=9u; i++) { PORTA = 0; PORTD = mask(i); PORTA = 2; Delay_ms(1000); } } while (1); //endless loop }//~!
