Learning Plan for Embedded C and Algorithms Course

Recapitulate Embedded C Basics

  • Syntax and semantics of Embedded C
  • Data types in Embedded C
  • Control structures in Embedded C
  • Arrays and pointers usage
  • Functions in Embedded C
  • Access hardware using register-level programming

Introduction to Algorithms

  • General algorithm concepts
  • Not tied to specific programming language
  • Comparison with function structures in Embedded C

Studying Basic Algorithms

  • Explore basic algorithms like searching (linear and binary search)
  • Explore basic algorithms like sorting (bubble sort, selection sort, insertion sort)
  • Explore basic data structures (stacks, queues, linked lists)
  • Relate the logic to how they would be implemented in Embedded C

Realization of Algorithms in Embedded C

  • Realize Algorithms in Embedded C
  • Implement algorithms' logic in Embedded C
  • Practice algorithm solving and programming simultaneously

Debugging and Optimization

  • Use Embedded C knowledge to debug and optimize algorithm implementations.
  • Focus on efficient functionality.

Capstone Project - 'Designing an Embedded System for IoT Devices'

  • Design an IoT device for Smart Home System or Health Monitoring System
  • Incorporate learned algorithms for efficient functionality

Let's get started with the course!

  • Now that we have a plan, let's dive into Algorithms used in Embedded C.
