Recommend computer languages for ME's
Recommend computer languages for ME's
(OP)
I learned Fortran in Univ. 30 years ago and haven't done any programing since.
Can anyone recommend current languages useful for casual programming for control(robotics, PID, I/O etc.) and visual simulations (for education)useful to general ME studies while having some fun.
Any fast learn via example CD's/books on VB. c++, Java ?? that are writted more to ME situations than to computer science /programmer situations. Thanks.

VB and other Languages are available as learning editions in various bookstores. You could try out a few that way.

I think VC/VC++ better for programming robotics and IO.
Programming in C harder than VB, but you will need specific
control for robotic.
When u made progs. in VB, Windows interfere with your IO & prog. It slow downs your appl. You have to control
interface cards (motor drivers, etc.) in high speed.Making
APIs (in C) will be a better solution in your situation.
As I know, the most important problem is data frequency.
When positioning resolution of your system increased, your
frequency of collecting data increases. Using hardware
drivers in your system helps controlling. Your prog. will
set required pos.values to hardware and hw controls axis drivers.
