Parallex Course: Which to Choose?

Translate This Thread From English to

Threaded View
Hello,
I am wanting to learn about the Parallax Propeller chip & would like
to find out which would be the best choice: The education kit, or the
demo kit? I have a basic understanding of electronics &  minimal
experience.

My concern is that the educational kit has not been developed enough
yet, so I would appreciate any input.

Does any one have any experience with training programs?


Re: Parallex Course: Which to Choose?

    --Have no experience with this Parallax chip but I *have* gone thru
the Basic Stamp books. I'm assuming you're on a tight budget? If you can try
to find copies of the textbooks and thumb thru them. Also Parallax has a
forum of their own and that would be a good resource for you.

Re: Parallex Course: Which to Choose?


A quick note ...Parallax offers most/all of their documentation and lab
manuals as free downloads. Just go to the product page you are
interested in and look for a Downloads or Documentation link. That gives
a good idea how far they've developed a particular learning lab. They're
also the latest, whereas a printed book you may find could be an older
version.

For Propeller, click on the product page, go to Documentation, and find
the Propeller Education category.

Agree about the Parallax forum; it's the best source for specific
questions about the Parallax products.
