…for Embedded and Low-Level Systems Development

C provides the convenience of learning one language (a significant efficiency over assembly language), while retaining the ability to target a variety of platforms — from modern operating systems (Linux, Windows, Mac) to real-time operating systems, systems-on-a-chip, and a host of microcontrollers for embedded development. And whenever you have [...]
