Is is possible to buy a learn C for the Propeller 1 using the SimpleIDE. Or is Propeller C a different language ? I perfer to learn out of a book, not online completely.

    Yes, Propeller C is standard C with extensions to operate the hardware.

    Have you done any coding on the Propeller 1 using the Propeller Manual that came with the board ? Have you worked with the spin language or Propeller Assembly at any length ?

    Remember that traditional books on C are targeted at writing applications that run in your selected OS. C on a microcontroller has no OS, has fewer resources, and is more concerned with hardware IO.
