 +1 Good Answer/Helpful		 #180769 - Use C - prudently
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I have had very few '51 projects where 1-10% of the code in assembler has not been either necessary (as in fast enough on a f120 @96MHz) or cost saving (as in using a smaller derivative).

my philosophy re '51 code is "C as far as it goes, but no fear of assembler"

                                                Richard doesn't exactly follow the technology front....            01/01/70 00:00

                        Do you test your code?            01/01/70 00:00      
                           sure I do            01/01/70 00:00

                                    I don't know about yours, but mine can do that ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Why didn't you read?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          Well, I have to admit ...            01/01/70 00:00
