Summary: Microcontrollers have a limited amount of memory in which variable data can be stored. In some cases, it is necessary to store and access large quantities of data, such as a lookup table, for use within a progam. If this data will not be changed by the program during run time, it can be stored in the read only section of memory.

To locate an array in read only memory rather than in RAM, declare and assign it as a constant.

Data constants that do not need to be indexed can be stored as a constant, but they can also be defined by a preprocessor directive so that the preprocessor simply substitutes in the number where the name of the constant is used before the code is compiled. The value can be changed in each location it is used by simply changing the preprocessor directive in one place, saving time and reducing errors.

#define pi (3.14159) //preprocessor directive

float circumference;
float diameter;
 

void main (void)
{
circumference = pi*diameter; // The preprocessor translates this into circumference = 3.14159 * diameter;
}

My Favorites (?)

'My Favorites' is a special kind of lens which you can use to bookmark modules and collections directly in Connexions. 'My Favorites' can only be seen by you, and collections saved in 'My Favorites' can remember the last module you were on. You need a Connexions account to use 'My Favorites'.

Definition of a lens

Lenses

A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
