abecedarian 330 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Yes, intelligence dictates that for one to receive the most intelligent answers, one must ask questions in the most intelligent manner, providing as much information as possible. Otherwise, answers will likely be just as vague as the question. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grahamf72 169 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Add to that, if you are using the MSP430G2 launchpad, indicate which mcu you have plugged in. There is a world of difference between the capabilities of the 2231, 2452 & 2553. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Rei Vilo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rei Vilo 695 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Also: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Nice! Before You Ask Before asking a technical question by e-mail, or in a newsgroup, or on a website chat board, do the following: Try to find an answer by searching the archives of the forum you plan to post to. Try to find an answer by searching the Web. Try to find an answer by reading the manual. Try to find an answer by reading a FAQ. Try to find an answer by inspection or experimentation. Try to find an answer by asking a skilled friend. If you're a programmer, try to find an answer by reading the source code. Copyright Quote Link to post Share on other sites
