hi everyone,

i'm trying to make the program run through a particular code for a set number of times.
is there something wrong with doing it this way.
i want it to look at sensor 1 for a set number of times and then look at sensor 2.
but it seems like when i am compiling it says condition is always true for the for loops
can someone explain?


Code:
void
main(void) {
 
  int n;
  init();
 
  port_c=0x00;
  putc(1);
  delay_ms(2000);
  clear_display();

 
   
  for (n=0 ;n<500 ;n++ ) {
        monitor_distance_sensor1();
  }

  for(n=0;n<500;n++){
           monitor_distance_sensor2();
  }

in CCS an int is 8bits. max value 255
Change int to int16
see if that works. Smile
