Hey

This page explains some basic of what ROS is and basic structure
http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/StartGuide

There are numerous tutorials of ranging difficulty, Here are some basic
ones,
http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials


In the tutorials, it is explained how you write the code be in python, c++ ,
whatever and how you compile it and run it.
e.g
http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/WritingPublisherSubscriber%28c%2B%2B%29

Maybe if you could explain how you want to use ros(on a PC, ...) it would be
easier to pinpoint exact tutorials to look at


Cheers,

billy
