Welcome to the {NAMESPACE} namespace (zone) of MMBasic is an interpreter for members of the PIC 32MX & 32MZ, STM H7 & L4 micro-controllers, the Raspberry Pi and a DOS version. Principally developed by Geoff Graham for PIC32MX and later Peter Mather's eXtreme version for the PIC32MZ and versions for the STM H7 and L4, you can get it and read all about it here: http://mmbasic.com/ It provides a rich programming interface that harks back to the "feel" of the original (and widespread) MicroSoft Basic languages with definite influence from [...]

[...] aimed at the MicroMite range of micro-controllers but the ideas are fully migrate-able across all the MMBasic platforms and beyond. On the smaller micromites, some tasks can be a big ask for an interpreter at 48MHz (or slower). Some of the following tips got an RC4 encryption algorithm usable - it was struggling to do un-encrypt >> process >> encrypt in under 1.5 seconds. It's still tight for long strings but it's usable now. So these tips can help and even have proved vital in some instances - do not dismiss as mere pedantry too lightly. This isn't an exhaustive list; [...]
[...] local time, it will only be UTC if the time on the relevant system is UTC. The following function for MMBasic returns the number of seconds since midnight on 1st January 1970 as an integer. UnixTime correctly takes account of leap years in its calculations but leap seconds are ignored - this conforms with the established method of calculating UnixTime as leap seconds are arbitrary and not generally predictable. Because of this, very small errors may exist when the output is compared to astronomical clocks. There is little sanity checking performed on the strings you provide. [...]

It is intended for use where an arbitrary input must be forced into numeric compliance. It does not sanitize the string (out of scope for a small building block), rather providing an indication if the argument is/not compliant.

The MMX and ST variants of MMBasic implement a Polygon command that takes a set of points in two integer arrays and draws an outline of the area with the option to fill the interior. The following is inspired by this command but includes an option to draw the data as either a line or a polygon. There is no option to fill the enclosed area. As written below, the routines use the Cartesian drawing commands (see dependencies) to provide co-ordinate 0,0 in the bottom left of the display. It is an easy enough job to replace the relevant drawing commands with the native ones [...]
[...] confessed below. As written below, the routines will allow a shift or rotate (depending on the value of the opt[ion] flag passed in). For now, they are supremely lazy, simply performing a 1 bit shift the number of times you request. i.e. if you shift the array 10 bits, it goes round the loop ten times. In that respect, I suppose they are faithful to the inspiration in that the Z80 didn't possess the barrel shifter of more modern CPUs that can shift any number of bits in a single cycle. I wanted to be clever and calculate a "cookie cut" on each array member but then [...]

[...] This version includes an optional parameter to return the start and finish times of daylight also: Opt=1 returns the start of daylight in minutes since midnight on the given date. Opt=2 returns the end of daylight. Requires a single string which is a concatenation of the standard DATE$ and TIME$ strings as argument - see the Now() Function for an easy interface.

[...] Locomotive Basic commands of the same names and make executing sections of code asynchronously a breeze. MMBasic provides four timers but they expect a sub program to be called each time and they have to be handled (i.e. if they are one-shot) by the called sub. The following code uses a single MMBasic timer but then expands this to practically unlimited timers and really easy to set one running. The main loop simply checks for the relevant flag and takes action (calls a Sub, changes the state of an output pin etc...) if it is set. After Set [...]

[...] converted into DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS which is arguably the most useful format to default to. Although MMBasic can't hope to support the different datatypes of modern languages, the Now() function is really useful instead of having to construct it each time. This function does that - OK, it isn't rocket science to concatenate the DATE$ and TIME$ but it reduces program size and, I think, makes program flow easier to read. Now() supports an optional date-format parameter. The default is zero which results in the date following the system format of DD-MM-YYYY. If opt [...]

A purely MMBasic GUI pack to provide a WindowsCE/95 look-a-like LCD panel interface for your projects. This is a work in progress in my spare time. This document has lots of improvements required - and I'll do them... just need a bit more time. Still to come: Lists, Drop-down Lists, tab strips, pop-up windows (if I can work out a way to do it). As it is now, it provides a lot of functionality and is usable. If you only need the simpler end of the GUI - buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons and text boxes etc, it is good to go. Let's face it; they probably cover 100% of [...]
[...] is a method of implementing RMS measurements on a mains AC signal, with minimal external circuit, in MMBasic on a small micromite. The name RMS (Root Mean Square) explains exactly what is involved: Take the square root of the mean value of all the measured value to the power two. 1/ take samples from an ADC 2/ calculate the square root of each sample and sum them all up. 3/ divide by the number of samples (summing and divide by number is essentially the mean value) 4/ take the square root of the mean value. In essence there is no start and end to this process. But if [...]
[...] measure the current and convert the measurements to an impedance graph. The software is written in MMBasic, the native language of the Micromite Backpack. Since the PIC32 processor can only output voltages in the range of 0V..3.3V, an additional amplifier is needed to achieve the +/- 15V. This amplifier, and it's power supply, are located on a third printed circuit board. The amplifier schematics are shown here: A short explanation of the circuit: The PIC32 processor does not have a DAC output that can be used to generate different voltages, therefore a PWM output [...]
