About Interactive C
Interactive C was developed in the early 1990s at MIT by Fred Martin and Randy Sargent. It was created to provide a simple, interactive programming environment for students and hobbyists working with the Handy Board, a popular microcontroller for educational robotics. Its goal was to facilitate learning and experimentation in robotics by offering a user-friendly interface for coding and immediate feedback.
Strengths of Interactive C included its simplicity, ease of use, and interactive capabilities, making it ideal for educational purposes. Weaknesses involved limited functionality compared to full-fledged C environments and less support for advanced features. Competitors included languages and environments like Arduino's IDE, LEGO Mindstorms with NXT-G or EV3 software, and other educational robotics platforms such as VEX Robotics with ROBOTC.
