    How to point to a #defined list of numbers ?

    Thanks guys, I'm actually using the Atmel AVR studio compiler. I read that I must use a special library to retain the table in flash only and to be able to read the values. That's the thing with embedded processors, that you're pretty limited by the hardware. There's only so much "C" can do...

    Setting memory address directly into pointer? (newby)

    Hello everyone, am new to this forum, and i've been programming with C for a couple of years on and off now. I'm basically trying to read a byte from a specific memory address, by using: UINT8 value; UINT8 *apointer; apointer=0x1080; value = *apointer -But I get a 'type mismatch' error...
