Arduino - Introduction - 0 views

  • What is Arduino?
  • Arduino is a tool for making computers that can sense and control more of the physical world than your desktop computer. It's an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple microcontroller board, and a development environment for writing software for the board.
  • Inexpensive - Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller platforms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost less than $50

  • Cross-platform - The Arduino software runs on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and Linux operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to Windows.
  • Simple, clear programming environment - The Arduino programming environment is easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar with the look and feel of Arduino
  • Open source and extensible software- The Arduino software and is published as open source tools, available for extension by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++ libraries, and people wanting to understand the technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AVR C programming language on which it's based. SImilarly, you can add AVR-C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want to.
  • Open source and extensible hardware - The Arduino is based on Atmel's ATMEGA8 and ATMEGA168 microcontrollers. The plans for the modules are published under a Creative Commons license, so experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the module, extending it and improving it. Even relatively inexperienced users can build the breadboard version of the module in order to understand how it works and save money.

Xerox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • Xerox was founded in 1906 in Rochester as The Haloid Photographic Company,[8] which originally manufactured photographic paper and equipment. The company subsequently changed its name to Haloid Xerox in 1958 and then simply Xerox in 1961.[9] Xerography, a modern word meaning "dry writing" developed from two Greek roots, is the name of the process invented in 1938 and developed by the Haloid Company. The company came to prominence in 1959 with the introduction of the Xerox 914,[10] the first plain paper photocopier using the process of Electro-photography, (later changed to xerography) discovered by Chester Carlson, which he developed with John H. Dessauer.

Introduction à PHP - 0 views

  • Qu'est-ce que PHP? PHP est un langage interprété (un langage de script) exécuté du côté serveur (comme les scripts CGI, ASP, ...) et non du côté client (un script écrit en Javascript ou une applet Java s'exécute sur votre ordinateur...). La syntaxe du langage provient de celles du langage C, du Perl et de Java. Ses principaux atouts sont : Une grande communauté de développeurs partageant des centaines de milliers d'exemples de script PHP ; La gratuité et la disponibilité du code source (PHP est distribué sous licence GNU GPL) ; La simplicité d'écriture de scripts ; La possibilité d'inclure le script PHP au sein d'une page HTML (contrairement aux scripts CGi, pour lesquels il faut écrire des lignes de code pour afficher chaque ligne en langage HTML) ; La simplicité d'interfaçage avec des bases de données (de nombreux SGBD sont supportés, mais le plus utilisé avec ce langage est MySQL, un SGBD gratuit disponible sur de nombreuses plateformes : Unix, Linux, Windows, MacOs X, Solaris, etc...) ; L'intégration au sein de nombreux serveurs web (Apache, Microsoft IIS, etc.).
  • Origines de PHP Le langage PHP a été mis au point au début d'automne 1994 par Rasmus Lerdorf. Ce langage de script lui permettait de conserver la trace des utilisateurs venant consulter son CV sur son site, grâce à l'accès à une base de données par l'intermédiaire de requêtes SQL. Ainsi, étant donné que de nombreux internautes lui demandèrent ce programme, Rasmus Lerdorf mit en ligne en 1995 la première version de ce programme qu'il baptisa Personal Sommaire Page Tools, puis Personal Home Page v1.0
