Hello.

I'm perfectly sure that it's time for me to start programming my nxts in anthor programming language. Dont u agree?
Well, in this point;

1) What language should i start with, (give me link, what follows, ... ) ?
2) How to understand it? (Link, post or tell me)

Thanks, everyone.

It really depends of your programming experience (if any?) and computer skills in general.

NXC is probably the best bet, especially because the programming environment (the program your are using to write your code with) is really nice and easy to use. You can check out this website:
http://bricxcc.sourceforge.net/nbc/

Download brixcc http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... e_id=67285 and install it. Then you can start programming using the following tutorial:

I agree. NXC is the best way to go. I use NXC only.

There are soo many options. This list is not totally updated, but will give you some ideas about the differences:

Thanks, everyone. I'd go with NXC for now.

You may also want to look at some C/C++ tutorials. The NXC Tutorial doesn't fully explain the C related stuff, IMO.

A Great C++ Programming Online Tutorial

Get the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition IDE.

Well, ok, I did the following:

I read the tutorial and there is some stuff i didnt understand -

page 14: int name [] thing.
page 25:Arguments of the function.
page 26:#define turn_around \ --> must be "around"? What other words are available?
page 31: Advanced commands from OnFwdReg.
page 33: PID control.

Thanks

14: Arrays. They are basically a group of individual variables with the same name, that are indexed by number, in the [].
25: A way to transfer variable or other info to the function you are telling to run.
26: #define is used to declare constants, so to speak. You can use whatever name you want, because you are setting it up.
Dunno about the rest.

I wrote my first program
Well, it's not hard - you just need to know what to write. It's little confusing lol.

Don't worry, it does get better with practice! Just keep at it
