    An excellent starter book for embedded C PIC Programming
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2009*

I am a professional programmer in C, C++, and Java, but I have not worked with Micro-controllers since very early in my career, when Dinosaurs roamed the earth. I bought this book primarily on the strength of Mr. Hellebuyck's magazine articles, as a means to get MPLAB and the compiler environment set up on my machine quickly and with little effort. Frankly, that alone was worth (to me at least) the price of the book, since the MPLAB and compiler docs are pretty much written for people who already know how to install and use them.For those of you who have never programmed in C before, the book explains things in a way that is clear to the beginner, provides a firm foundation of programming concepts, and that will keep you from getting stuck, frustrated, and giving up. A more advanced book may contain more projects and maybe even more interesting projects, but that will do you little good if you lack the basic language and programming environment skills to make use of those projects.I would like to explicitly reply to the reviewer who gave this book a "2" rating, which I think is undeserved. The reviewer complained about about Mr. Hellebuyck's grammar, syntax, use of fonts, and other items that are, in my opinion,  irrelevant to the content of the book. The content is superb, and that is far more important than style in a technical book. The reviewer also complained about the basic nature of the information in the book - the use of screen shots, basic programming constructs, etc. The point is, the book is titled "Beginner's Guide to ..., and that is exactly what it is. These items help a rank beginner get started. I think the book does a credible job helping these folks get up to speed. Finally, he stated the book was overpriced. I very much disagree, and believe this book to be well worth its price to the audience for whom it was intended.If you are a beginning programmer, or not a programmer at all, this is a great place to start. Yes, you will outgrow it eventually, but so what? It gets you where you need to go. Buy this book, do the examples, learn C, then get a more advanced book. In the meantime you will have a LOT less hair pulling in the process.By the way, I have no relationship, personal or business, with Mr Hellebuyck.

    Quite helpful!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2013*

It has been quite helpful to me (a NON " C" programmer) - to be able to start learning how to program this type of microprocessor in something other than low level assembly code.  It is above the level of a "C for Dummies" book, but not so far that I can not follow the concepts.  My only critique would be the limitation to the one processor in his discussions and examples.  I can understand his reasoning in his approach, but a fuller understanding of the applying C to other Microchip processor families involved would have been nice.  Overall a good buy.

    More than just a great book!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2012*

I purchased this book after doing a little research on what books people said did a good job explaining embedded c programming to beginners.  I started going through the book and ran into an issue compiling one of the projects.  Somewhat frustrated, I went to the author's homepage and just fired off an e-mail that basically said, "hey what the heck is wrong here?"  To my surprise, he responded within an hour and explained that the latest version of the compiler I was using changed from what was the standard when he wrote the book and he already had sent out the fix in a newsletter and happily sent me a copy so I could make the fix and continue making progress.  I almost forgot, I sent him the e-mail around 10 PM!  It was a very simple fix but I would have spent a bunch of time struggling because I thought maybe it was something I did wrong.  So if you had any hesitations about buying the book, just know that the author is responsive to questions and stands behind his products.  That's worth way more than the price of admission in my eyes!  Thanks Chuck and keep up the good work!
