Hi, Please see my code below. If I enter 4.42 in for my first float and 10.00 in for my second float and I muliply them together I get a result of 44.200001. The reason is because the compiler thinks that 4.42 = 4.4200001 (I checked this during debug). Why does this do this? How does...

I found a $36 start kit that I'm going to purchase from Microchip. Thanks

Thanks. I appreciate it.

Triden, Thanks for the response. Stupid question...Would you happen to know how I write C language with this? That is, how do I program this thing? Is there a c compiler that comes with this?

Hi, I'm looking for a very cheap uP start kit that I can practice c language and perhaps assembly language on. I want to light up led's and stuff like that. Can anyone direct me to a good url to find one I can purchase. I'm interested in the software (compiler), etc. too. regards...

Hi, Can anyone tell me what an anti-aliasing filter is and how it is used? regards, meldave

Thanks. I appreciate it.

Can someone explain to me in leyman's terms what an FIR filter is and what it is used for?

Existence, and all life is disposable Perhaps feeling itself is the reason for living. Whether its pain or joy. If you imagine that your existence is merely a blip in time compared to the beginning and end of our universe. There is a famous quote that goes a little something like this...

Russ, Thanks for the response. I will respond later when today when I have more time. David

To date, I don't believe scientist have a concrete scientific explanation on why tornadoes really occur in nature. There are some theories, but they have never really been proven. I believe that the this guys theory may be pointed in the right direction. Please read the article and comment if...

Russ, Sorry I have not been able to get on here as of late. But if you don't mind I would like to bombard you with a few more questions. Again, I am inserting our text capacitor circuit for reference. BATT ***wire*** CAP 1 *****wire***** CAP 2******wire*** BATT 1- ______2______ 3-...

Voltage Correction. That is Node A has less electron to electron force than Node B with respect to Ground's electron to electron force. When I say electron to electron force, I mean the force between all the electrons at a given node. Sort of like pressure.

Voltage Thanks for your response. I do now believe that voltage potential energy is analogous to the boulder up a hill. There is one caveat that I have. Imagine a large electronic board with a complex circuit on it. Node A is 2 ft away from Node B and NodeA and NodeB are 2ft away from...

Voltage Any feedback on my last entry will be much appreciated. Anyone?
