C and Embedded C Programming Internship

National Telecommunication Institute (NTI) • Part time

Oct 2022 - Nov 2022 • 1 mo

Intensive C Programming training for Embedded Systems that teaches the C programming language in the context of embedded systems hosted by the National Telecommunication Institute (NTI). This course teaches delegates how to program a modern embedded microcontroller using real-time development tools. C Programming for Embedded Systems provides an excellent full-scope primer for anyone wishing to learn or use C in embedded programming or hardware-software integration. Module Contents: - Introduction to C Programming. - Data Types. - Variable Declarations. - Static, extern, and volatile keywords. - Loops (while, do while, for) - Arrays Declaration and Definition. - Function Declaration and Definition. - Strings. - Introduction to Data Structures. - Linked Lists. - Embedded C concepts. - Program Organization. - Variables, Data Types, and Operators. - Control Statements and Loops. - Functions and Macros. - Arrays. - Pointers. - Unions and Structures. - Dynamic Memory Allocation. - Data Structures and Linked Lists. - Software Characteristics. - Software Layering Architecture. - Memory Organization. - Variable Scope and Lifetime. - Extern, static, Const, Volatile Keywords. - Building/Compilation Process. - Interrupts. - Startup Code and Linker Script. At the end of the course, there was a Graduation Project where every student implemented a "School Management System" using the C language as an application for all the concepts we studied throughout the course.
