At some point I'll take time off reading as many tutorials as I can find
and
type in a ready made "flash a LED" program, but I'd like to get the
instructions I don't understand down to a minimum by then.

We don't all have that much discipline!

Reading about it instead of plugging the soldering iron in and doing
something reminds me of the last time I tried to quit smoking!


I like to flash a light or wiggle something to help motivate me into
reading more.

At the moment its like a war on several fronts, reading the tutorials I'm
beginning to remember the instruction names & what they do but there are
lots of things that have to be learned side by side, like how to "drive"
MPLAB and probably how to plan routines with flowcharts - just to name a few
I can think of off hand....

Wiggling an RC Servo is another Lab project. I have not found anything
especially useful with this project because controlling one servo is
not enough and more than one gets complicated in a hurry!

It'll probably get harder before it gets easier on my way to that level!
