From our study of C++, it should be clear that, unlike class encapsulation and single inheritance, which were essentially free in C, polymorphism in C involves some complexity and overhead. In the ...

This lesson starts a new segment about Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) — an important set of concepts critical to understanding any modern software, not just modern embedded software. As usual in ...

C++ covers the whole programming range, from low level to high, making it ideally suited for writing portable software. Code portability is often neglected in embedded-systems engineering, however.
