Total newbie to pic programming

[TheKnight]

Hey all!
I am a total newbie at this areа and I would like to learn everything about pic programing. I was searching for this a lot and it appears that there are more types of chips and I'm totally confused.. So can anyone give me like a introduction to it or point me where to start from, with some small projects and what do I need to convert the languages.. Also which programming language is used in here..?
Thanks.

Hi,
A few suggestions from me:
1. Download the datasheet of PIC16F877A or PIC16F887:
PIC16F877A - ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/39582b.pdf
PIC16F887 - ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/41291F.pdf
2. Download the mid-range reference manual.
3. Determine programming language. Choices include ASM, BASIC, C, PASCAL. I would recommend BASIC or C.
4. Determine compiler. I would recommend mikroC or mikroBASIC.
5. Download the mikroElektronika free ebook - **broken link removed**
6. Start with the mikroElektronika book.
7. Make many many codes to get a grip of things.

When you have questions, come to the forum and ask.

Hope this helps.
Tahmid.
