Wow, where can you get those things?
At school we have these bords where you can plug an input, do some action
with it and then output something.
Like, your input is generated by a pulse generator, it goes from 1 Volt to 5
Volt, within some time you set it to. Then you plug that input in a 'NOT'
operator or an 'AND' operator and you can use LED's, A small beeper or a
relay to output the result. You can input any type of input actually, also
sensors. Pretty neat thing actually. We have to use it a lot.
I consider that to be the base of programming. You let it make a decision
based upon some input resulting in some output. The decision is split down
into very small decisions, which you use to explain the computer the more
complex decisions.
What does that RCA thing do ?
