Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5
Operating System: Windows XP

Hi, I am new to origin 7.5 and i would love to start using the programming module. I have absolutely no programming knowledge. What is the best way to start? Are there any manuals etc (stuff that can be read on my commute home would be most useful)

Regards

Andy Powell

Hi Andy,

There are two programming languages in Origin - LabTalk Script and Origin C. LabTalk is a proprietary scripting language that is unique to Origin. Since you posted in the Origin C forum, I presume you are more interested in Origin C programming.

I would suggest first reading some basic book on C programming that also provides some intro to C++. Origin C is ANSI C compatible and it also provides access to all Origin objects such as Origin worksheets, graphs etc.

Once you have a basic understanding of C programming, you could then look at the Programming Guide section of the Origin Programming Help file. This material is not currently in the printed manual, but is a soft help file. Then you can look at examples in that chapter, as well as examples on our website such as this page:
http://originlab.com/index.aspx?s=9&lm=+71
and posts by other users on this forum etc.
