Pointers and Memory in C: Build a Rocket Display Module

About this Course

Do you know that almost 70% of embedded system software and firmware are written in C because of its ability to directly access device memory? In this 1.5 hour project-based course, you will learn the basics of C pointers, dynamic memory allocation, and pointer arthrimetics. We will do this by enabling an embedded program for a rocket display module to accept and store messages by allocating memory dynamically. This project will help C programmers to master C pointers and memory allocation. Both are essential skills to C programming. This course is aimed at learners who have already mastered these entry level C skills: variables, scalar data types (int, long, char), fixed size arrays, functions, using external functions with header files.
