ok you will probably screem at me for asking the aame questions but:
I would like to start in pics I think the 16F88 of which I already have samples is a good starting one as I think it is as simple to work on as the now superseeded 16F84 and has many useful addtional features.
I don't mind buying a programmer board a kit is fine as wellits just that I can't make my own PCB and don't know where to get them made and by the time I di I might as well buy a kit, I did start my own on matrix board but I would rather leave out the "faulty programmer" possibility in the variables of a faulty pic programing/project.
I am interested in doing it in assembly or basic I don't have any programing knowledge that would help I did basic and pascal long time ago but never c+
any advice ? the microchip site is full of gear and I don't know where to start from but I'm checking it out as well, the last time I looked at their IDE thing it looked rather complicated and more than I need.
thanks all for your patience
