output a nible

Archiver

How can I output a nible to a port.


result var nib
result = %1010
'I like to see this pattern on I/O pins P8 through P11
'P8 = 1, P9 = 0, P10 = 1 and P11 = 0
I used this statement:
result2 var OUTC
'
result2 = result


It didn't work
Thanks

You need to make those pins outputs. Add this to your program:

DirC = %1111

... and it will work. The BASIC Stamp defaults pins to inputs for safety
reasons. Your program must specifically set them as outputs when needed.
