Is there a programming language reference for the MCU? I tried to look online but I couldn't find one.

Thanks

Hi kgb,

rajabalu21, thanks for the link. The document rajabalu linked you to is the descripiton of the assembly instruction set for the MCU. This document is very helpful if you are writing your code in assembly, or if you were looking to understand the assembly your machine code was outputting. You are probably looking for something like the avr-libc documentation. This is a reference for all the functions included in avr-libc, which tend to cover most things you can think of wanting to do.

I would like to crate an array of string and then display one of the string onto the LCD. How do do this. Here is an example of what I mean:

main() { char Wave[3][4];

Wave[0] = "SIN";
Wave[1] = "TRI";
Wave[2] = "SQR"'

.
.
.
.

lcd_line_two();
lcd_write_data(Wave[i]); // Displays the selected wave type on line 2.
.
.
.

}

And yes! Im a newbee when it comes to 'C'.

It would be very cool if somebody (@ nerdkits) could write some very simple examples of creating 1 and 2 dim arrays, strings and numeric type that are placed into flash, ram and any other location thats available to us nerd kit users.
