I'm finishing up a new program, and as usual, I'm going over it to look for things I can change, improve, tighten up, etc. My objectives are, in order:
1. Robustness
2. Modularity
3. Simplicity
Now, when working with ladder, it's not a "big picture" sort of language, and that's what I'm trying to accomplish. To show the interrelationships of all the different states, and the sequences in each.
I've tried analyzing with flow charts, but this doesn't seem to work. Flow charts are more for the process, not the program, and while you can derive a program from a flow chart, going in reverse doesn't seem to work as well.
So, for you master gurus, what method do you use to check your work? Do you indeed use flow charts? Do you rewrite the program in BASIC? And how detailed do you get in the analysis?
Any examples would be really helpful.
Thanks!
