I finally purchased a USRP2. I have many years of RF/Microwave hardware experience but totally new to Python programming, not to mention C++. I know some C for microcontrollers, a little Verilog on Xilinx hardware, and some DSP theory. I have read Lyon's book and have taken his class, along with some classes in grad school.
I have the gnuradio 'next' branch working with the USRP2 via the UHD. I have a basic nbfm receiver working in GNU Radio Companion (GRC). 1) I'd like to get started with coding flow-graphs in Python. Is there any documentation that describes the Python libraries, mainly arguments to the functions and the algorithm details? I'm browsing through the doxygen documentation but it's kind of overwhelming since it's geared toward C++ and doesn't cover how it functions. 2) What IDE is good for Python, specifically for use with gnuradio? I have dabbled a few hours with Wing IDE and I like it so far. I want something with a class browser and auto completion. However, I figured it would help (e.g. auto-completion) with the arguments to the gnuradio functions, but it gives no hints. 3) I saw there was an actual gnuradio book, but looks like it was never published. I'd be willing to buy this in PDF or ebook format; is it avaiable? Anyway, for now I'm looking at the *.py that GRC generates and learning from that. Also looking at the examples in source tree. I'm just wondering if there is more documentation. Maybe it's just dive in and sink or swim; of course that's probably the best way to learn. I figure modifying the example programs to work with the UHD will teach me allot. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Getting-started-and-documentation-beyond-dialtone.py---tp30308935p30308935.html Sent from the GnuRadio mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
