Event-Driven Programming and State Machines Course
Once learned, the technique of event-driven programming is a fun and easy way to write reliable and maintainable embedded software. Unfortunately, most embedded programmers either haven't heard of event-driven programming or don't know how to use it properly. This course trains programmers to architect firmware with an event focus and shows the many benefits of using state machine frameworks to implement the resulting design. You'll also learn UML's statechart notation and a variety of best practices for effective event-driven programming in C (contact us about C++ options).
