9.2. Step 1 Writing a “C”-program
Normally you will be designing and writing a YETI program for a de-
dicated programming language. For this purpose we choose a very
popular programming language called “C”. You will need a special word
processor (an editor) to write the YETI program. The preferred editor is
called “Programmers Notepad 2” (PN2).
Of course you might also be able to write programs by using “Notepad”
or a standard word processor like MS Word but we strongly advise not
to use a word processor for this, because the editing procedure will be
much more complicated.
In fact the PN2-program is providing some features to help you in edi-
ting and trouble shooting in various programming languages. You will
just need to select the language, e.g. “C”, “Visual Basic” or “HTML” in
your PN2-setup and the PN2-editor will help you by highlighting all
special commands, comments, functions and variables in various
colors. These features will be a great help in programming.
