C, Firmware or System Software Programming Motivation

  C is just a step up from assembly language, which is practically a hexadecimal human translation of machine code and considered the lowest level programming language. Hence programming, debugging and maintaining C code when applied to embedded software/firmware applications can be a nightmare if not practiced properly. Following industry standard programming exercises, solutions will give you the real development experience for your competitive exams, interviews.
