MikroC was brilliant, there is no easier way to learn C and embedded programming.

MikroC PRO is better, in fact it's better than any other PIC C compiler on the market. Aside from the features described by Losic, PRO is much smoother to use and the programming experience is much better defined from an electronic point of view, as an engineer I find the compiler thinks like I do. If you wanted just the basic features from another compiler you would have to spend thousands of dollars. MikroC PRO gives you everything as standard and the updates/libraries are free.

:D

I'm glad it does not think like I do. It would not be very good at all :lol:
