nbc is:

Next Byte Codes (NBC) is a simple language with an assembly language syntax that can be used to program LEGO’s NXT programmable brick (from the new LEGO Mindstorms NXT set).

Not eXactly C (NXC) is a high level language, similar to C, built on top of the NBC compiler. It can also be used to program the NXT brick. NXC is basically NQC for the NXT. To compile NXC programs just use the NBC compiler with source code files that have a .nxc file extension.

If you are just getting started with programming, then graphical environments such as the Mindstorms NXT software may be better choices for you. If, however, you’re a programmer and you prefer typing a few lines to drag and drop icon programming, then either NBC or NXC may be perfect for you.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install nbc

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

sudo apt -y install nbc

sudo aptitude install nbc
