Embedded C programming novice to professional in 24 hrs
Why C programming?
C is a small but powerful language. C has a powerful set of operators which allows the
programmer to access the machine at bit level. C is portable that means we can move source code written in one
machine to another machine. These popular features make C as the go to language while writing operating systems,
compilers, database programs, embedded systems and so on.
Following articles on C programming are useful for a novice as well as experienced professionals. If you are going for an interview, appearing a written test or academic exam, to go through these articles will be sufficient preparation for you. At the same time if you are an experienced software professional and got stuck with a programming task, to review the programming features explained in these articles will be highly helpful.
