Hello guys :)

I have a nested delay loop in PIC ASM, which I know is pretty simple, but I just can't visualise the exact mechanics as a whole in my mind. :( Would anyone be able to recommend some simple software that can generate a flowchart from PIC assembly code?

I know this code is trivial, but visualising just this single block in my program is driving me mad!

Thank you, as ever :)

I doubt anything like this exists, especially for assembly. The lower level the language, the harder it is to analyze. Drawing the flow chart yourself is probably the best solution, especially since this really helps your understanding of the problem. You could run the code in a simulator/debugger to get a feel for execution flow. I used to draw lots of diagrams with pencil and paper back when I was still coding assembly.

Yes, you're right! I think I just was having "one of those days" you know? Mental blocks galore.

Thank you for replying :)

Have a great weekend!
