But I do think Stamp BASIC is easier than assembler, though I've only seen Stamp BASIC, never tried it.
Although using BASIC might be easier for some people, I agree with Mathieu that it is not always the case, especially with a little bit of programming or scripting experience. A BASIC stamp is a hobbyist microcontroler, and there's a couple of things to know about BASIC stamps compared to PICs:
- A BASIC stamp is a PIC with a BASIC interpreter.
- A PIC can be programmed with C, not only assembler.
- Interpreted BASIC is much slower than assembly or compiled C.
- Assembly and compiled C can do more than interpreted BASIC.
- A BASIC stamp can cost over five times more than a PIC.
