Syntax And Structure of C - Simply C
Fundamentals of the C Programming Language. (March 2021)
This class will enable you to begin writing embedded C language firmware for microcontrollers. Most major C language constructs will be covered, including variables, constants, operators, expressions and statements, decision functionality, loops, functions, arrays, multi-file projects, and data pointers. You will learn all of these C language topics from a non-hardware framework so that you can focus on learning the C language instead of the microcontroller architecture. The presentation will be accompanied by instructor-led code demonstrations that will be conducted with the powerful MPLAB® simulator. Skills learned in this class will be applicable to any ANSI C compiler. At the end of the class, you will have the opportunity to apply your knowledge to program a microcontroller to perform basic input and output functionality and control. You will also use the MPLAB X IDE to perform actual debugging on a microcontroller and execute some basic debugging techniques. While not required, previous experience with any programming language or experience with microcontrollers would be helpful.
