A study of embedded programming using low-level programming languages. The course covers the hardware architecture of an embedded system and the techniques needed to write programs for simple ...

Even with so many other system-level languages to choose from, C remains the popular choice. Many key projects—such as the Linux kernel and the Python runtime—still use C, and they will likely do so ...

IIT Bombay has organised this course while keeping in mind the value of basic programming to all. According to IIT Bombay, C++ allows one to design very fast programs and access low-level machine ...

What is a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), and what does “real-time” mean anyway? What are the various kinds of state machines, and how to code them efficiently in C? What is object-oriented ...

Mention Bjarne Stroustrup’s (Fig. 1) name to programmers, and they think of C++.That’s not surprising since he came up with the object-oriented programming language and continues to be involved in the ...

C remains the darling of embedded programmers, but C++ garners a sizable chunk. Using C++ features judiciously can result in code that’s as efficient or more efficient than a comparable C application.

I recently presented arguments for and against using dynamic memory allocation in C and C++ programs. 1 I do agree that truly safety-critical systems should avoid using dynamic allocation because the ...
