As with any programming language we need to define a list of operators and how they behave. After years of C/C++ programming I simply copy the list from that language as a start. This first list show mathematical operators. Operator Description + Addition: a+b – Subtraction: a-b / Divide. a/b * Multiply: a*b +a Positive…
PScript would only be able to perform math unless we integrate it to the target platform. In the drawing above I illustrate (1) the build in function “print” and (2) a variable “a”. Both are declared as a C/C++ struct in a table that point to a function with a specific format that accept a…
I must admit that PScript is a nice break from the larger BSA task. Sadly BSA is written in C# and PScript in C++ because PScript is perfect for extending BSA. But, I can actually use C++ from C#, so lets see. I have created a stack that I use while I interpret and I…
I surpriced myself with how easy it was to implement the PScript Interpreter and would like to share the basic technique that I am using. The language is still under development, but the idea is to have a minimalistic Interpreter that can be used embedded so I need a very small footprint on the core…
I draftet a specification for a PScript interpreter some time ago and have implemented a minimalistic version. Basically I am down on very small footprints using only 1020 bytes SRAM to execute a decent size script. I actually think I will try implementing this on an Arduino Uno just for fun, it is that small.…
This board can be purchased from Sparkfun for 215.- USD and is basically a breakout board for ZED-F9P from ublox. ZED-F9P can be purchased for 148.- USD in quantum of 10 units, but I only wanted two of these boards for now for my robot project. What is important with this is the 10mm precision…
I have written about this issue before, but ST never fail to suprice me on their SW quality – crap that don’t work: Bugs, bugs and bugs! I updated STM32CubeIDE to version 1.6.0 yesterday and discovered that the IDE fail to load the images – I had to default to STM32-Link Utility to be able…
Having worked with computers in 40+ years I must admit that I sometime dig into nostalgia and look at vintage computers before I recall how little you got done and how much time things took. The world has moved on – and thanks for that. RP2040 or Raspberry Pi Pico if you like is a…
This application is a replica of work I have done in Qt and C# before, but this time I use QML which is a very different technology. At first I must admit that it is overwealming and complex. One of the steepest learning curves I have experienced as it involves C++, Qt, QML, JavaScripts and…
One of the key features on the boards are that they assemble to a larger control system by just clicking them together. I have around 12 different boards by now and will start adding new boards and variants as I convert all my electronics from Target 3001 to KiCAD. These two board have 5V, Device…
