Summary: Hands on guide to PicBasic
Comment: Excellent book about PicBasic and the PIC Microcontroller. The book briefly discusses each of the PicBasic and PicBasic Pro commands (with lots of code snippets and examples) without trying to duplicate the information in the PicBasic manual.

Despite the product description given above and on the back cover, the book does not use the PIC15F84 (sic) but the much more advanced PIC16F876.

Examples are provided for BOTH the standard and Pro versions of the compiler, not one or the other as in other books. If you use the Pro version of the compiler you are not required to read the examples provided for the standard version since the relevant information is duplicated.

The Projects include:

The obligatory LED experiments.
Analog to Digital Conversion
Driving a Servo Motor
Using a Parallel LCD module
Serial Communications
Using External Memory
Making Music

There's a nice chapter on Robotics which demonstrates Line Tracking and Obstacle Detection and Avoidance.

Two of the Schematic Diagrams contain errors such as hooking 5 volts up to the ground pin (ouch!). These diagrams are on pages 140 (figure 5-4) and 147 (figure 5-6). You should be able to spot the problems right away, or at least as you are wiring the circuit.
