Ever wonder that, people can easily learn the facebook easily by self learning. However, some people are scared to learn on how to use C++ software, a network simulator, an MPLAB IDE. Usually, this kind of software come together with help files and a lot of example.  Maybe its because of passion to learn new thing. Its quite wasted if the same principle http://zulprog.blogspot.com/2011/02/people-can-learn-facebook-easily-but.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484930994604885168.post-8050812861779802221Mon, 03 Jan 2011 02:02:00 +00002011-01-03T10:02:10.198+08:00FlowchartOne of the usual task given to me when I was an undergraduate student is to transform the program into a flowchart. According to my supervisor, the main reason for flowchart is so that other people can refer to the flowchart and make a program using other language. Also it makes non-technical people understand what we are doing. The key to retrieve a flowchart from a given program is to http://zulprog.blogspot.com/2011/01/using-mplab-ide-to-draw-flowchart.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484930994604885168.post-7720549166098024542Mon, 12 Oct 2009 01:23:00 +00002009-10-12T09:23:34.466+08:00ClarificationIn this blog I share some knowledge on programming and electronic matter.

Especially on data structure. I work on a project which requires complex data structure (err maybe its complex for me, but not for others) . This project is developed using TCL\TK.

In most cases I believe that most algorithm fall in 3rd category. So what is this mean? It is simple.. since the algorithm consists of mathematical and logical, the most basic things http://zulprog.blogspot.com/2009/03/random-thought-converting-algorithm.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484930994604885168.post-2059503284970994514Wed, 11 Feb 2009 12:35:00 +00002009-04-27T10:18:06.516+08:00AWKI'm now revisiting AWK language for trace file processing. Awk has been widely used for trace file processing, since (I believe) it is easy to do column filtering.The column can be represented using $1 for column 1, $2 for column 2 etc.. , using other language like Tcl requires list manipulation which is not as straight as using AWK.However, of course, the syntax of AWK is a little bit http://zulprog.blogspot.com/2009/02/revisiting-awk-language.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484930994604885168.post-4783491227193750556Wed, 04 Feb 2009 02:35:00 +00002009-04-27T10:18:21.493+08:00PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUEI have been conducting microcontroller lab for a while as a lab instructor.Microcontroller consists of both Hardware and Software.

Actually this solution can be found in tcl manual.
