The PICBased compiler used throughout this books allows ease of using Basic language coupled with the speed of assembly language. Basic is a user-friendly language, it is easier to learn and master than either assembly or C language. When the basic code is compild to its assembly language equivalents, it is 20 to 100 times faster than standart Basic code, effectively countering the speed advantages C or assembly languages typically offer. The compiled Basic code is programmed into the PiC microcontroller. As stated, this methodology increases the code execution 20 to 100 times faster than the equivalent interpreted Basic code that is use in other microcontroller systems like the Basic Stamp....
