Decimal calculations and display on LCD

hm2008

Hi,

I am new to Propeller. I am trying to use the propeller to count the input pulses then calculate and display the diameter on the LCD. I read the manual about the float, floatMath, but I still don't understand. Do you have any sample code? Please help. Thanks.

There is the FLOAT_DEMO.SPIN in Propeller/Examples/Library That will give you a good start I should say.

Thank you very much·deSilva. But I can find the Examples/Library. Could you drop me a link, please? Sorry.

There are several objects in the Propeller Object Exchange: obex.parallax.com/objects/category/6/.

Well, first you have to install the PropellerTool. When you start it you will see some frames.. have a look at the left hand side, there are three frames! The middle one shows you the folders of your drive C:

It is generally pre-selected with the folder where your PropellerTools resides, generally called the "library".

Now select folder "Examples" in that folder, and furthermore folder "Library".

Now you will see AT THE LEFT BOTTOM frame a list of interesting files, exercising manx of the library objects. Try them all! This will give you a little bit inside, I hope. Of course it will also pay to read through the Manual and the Tutorials.....

HM2008,
I am working on a project listed right above yours " Need help with the following code".
I also am working with a serial LCD made by Matrix Orbital and using a matrix Keypad to enter data as well. It may not help you write your total code but maybe helpful in certain areas.
