Re: Sensors return values, types and more :D Newbie

Thank you lizard381, that helped me understand mutex better. :)

Sensors return values, types and more :D Newbie

Hello :) I'm still fairly new to NXC so please forgive the questions. 1) First of all I would like to know what type of values are returned by the sensors. I know that the US sensor returns bytes in (0, 255) but can it return any other types? What type of values does the color sensor return (in both...

Not valid for a prototype - newbie question

My name is Michal and I'm a student (at Poznan University of Economics - major connected with quant analysis and Computer Science). I just bought my Mindstorms set and after having some fun with the graphical software I decide...
