IN-DEPTH ROADMAP

A curriculum built around real engineering

MODULE 01

Embedded C Programming & Core Logic Building

2 Weeks

Master the C language foundational syntax, bitwise memory manipulation, pointers, dynamic memory, and algorithms tailored for microcontrollers.

What You Will Learn

  • Introduction to C, history, features, execution flow, compilers, cross-compilers, and translators
  • C program structure, keywords, tokens, identifiers, constants, variables, and data types
  • Standard input/output functions (printf, scanf), qualifiers, modifiers, and escape sequences
  • Operators: arithmetic, relational, logical, assignment, increment/decrement, ternary, bitwise, and sizeof
  • Decision-making: simple if, if-else, nested if, if-else ladder, and switch-case statements
  • Control structures: while, for, do-while loops, break, continue, and goto statements
  • Arrays: 1D arrays, 2D matrices, linear search, and sorting algorithms
  • String handling: custom string manipulation functions, reversing, and palindrome verification
  • Functions: user-defined functions, built-in functions, call by value vs call by reference, and recursion
  • Storage classes: auto, static, extern, and register memory scopes
  • Pointers: pointer types, void pointers, null pointers, wild/dangling pointers, and pointer arithmetic
  • User-defined data types: structures, unions, enumerations (enum), and typedef
  • Dynamic memory allocation: malloc, calloc, realloc, and free memory management
Hands-on Lab Deliverable

Write 25+ C programs including bitwise registers, a menu-driven calculator, dynamic matrix operations, and a student database using structures.
