Hi

 

I was wondering wether somebody in this group could tell me the best way to get started with electronis seeng as about the only thing i have done is some soldering. I was wondering what would be the best board to get started with and wether I could get it from the farnell website. If so please post the link below to the product you think would be best for me to get starrted with and why you think i should start with that product.

    My background is in civil engineering but I always wanted to be a computer engineer. I learned programming by googling. Even outside school there were friends and friends of friends who had electronics or hardware interfacing projects. I helped them and collaborated on things I understand. With it I learned about a few stuff and I'm still learning till now. I don't know how to design circuits yet but I will get there if I won't stop learning and helping others. The above comments are all true.

     

    My first electronic board was an arduino clone I bought from china. From there I got a few stuff every time I have a spare. I'm from the Philippines and much of the boards should be ordered online and it'll cost you much on custom tax. But it's an investment.
