Whiteboards...where would engineering be today without them? I have two. One in my office, and one in the shop. I use them almost every day. It's a running joke now - when I'm illustrating an issue to someone, I hear mutterings in the background of "must've scratched his head"...lol Flowcharting is early in the process, and as such is prone to modifications. Whiteboards make this painless. Of course if one isn't available, all bets are off - D. >From: PicDude >Reply-To: "Microcontroller discussion list - Public." >To: "Microcontroller discussion list - Public." >Subject: Re: [OT]: Software design aids (was Re: [EE] Host interface >software programming language) >Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2005 14:47:14 -0500 > >On Tuesday 12 July 2005 12:41 pm, Bob Blick scribbled: > > > What kind of software design aids do you use for your project? > > > > "cocktail napkin".
