      It was cool and it seems to be quite complicated. Actually, I did not get how it works. when you press a key on the keyboard does it show that key? or it shows all the possible characters in the LEDs?   And it's good that small basic is being taught in schools. I think it should be part of every school's curriculum and as a primary course like Maths and Physics. I think everyone should know some programming in the modern world.

    I think you actually have to update the code to change the display (Data =). But making it interactive would definitely be a big improvement.

    Agree about getting development taught in schools. In some ways, the future of technology depends on it. Thanks Behnam!

    This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. <a href ="Led digital display boards">Led digital display boards</a>

    Thanks Led digital! Yes, it's all about learning programming and helping people get there as easily as possible.

    John, can you make virtual versions of those LEDs using Small Basic? Because that's sort of the topic here. You know, being a Small Basic blog and all. =^)
