#88167 - not the thing but the word
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The one thing I disagree with Eric about is multi-tasking
I guess you mean me Erik.

Your example is similar to so many things I have done and NONE of them have been labelled "multi-tasking".

Of course, you can not regulate a speed (an Ian Task) without being told what the speed should be (an Ian Task).

So Ian see the world in small pieces, I see it as a whole, the TASK is to "control a motor" not "to read the required speed".

One reason for my objection to calling the workloop (call a; call b; call c; loop;) multi-tasking is that that makes all the "mini PC" clowns come out and cry horray. The main one, of course is: "a rose is a rose is a rose"
