"If you have some programming experience and are familiar with C or C++, you're ready to learn how to write embedded software. The hands-on, no-nonsense style of this book will help you get started by offering practical advice from someone who's been in your shoes and wants to help you learn quickly." "The techniques and code examples presented here are directly applicable to real world embedded software projects of all sorts. Even if you've done some embedded programming before, you'll still benefit from the topics in this book, which include: testing memory chips quickly and efficiently, writing and erasing Flash memory, verifying nonvolatile memory contents with CRCs, interfacing to on-chip and external peripherals, designing and implementing device drivers, optimizing embedded software for size and speed, and making the most of C++ without a performance penalty."--Jacket.

The author says it best, "I hope to move you, a little at a time,from understanding C to the point where C++ becomes your mindset". This remarkable book is designed to streamline the process of learning C++ in a way that discusses programming problems, why they exist, and the approach C++ has taken to solve such problems. "You can't just look at C++ as a collection of features; some of the features make no sense in isolation.  You can only use the sum of the parts if you are thinking about design, not simply coding.  To understand C++, you must understand the problems with C and with programming in general.  This book discusses programming problems, why they are problems, and the approach C++ has taken to solve such problems.  Thus, the set of features that I explain in each chapter will be based on the way that I see a particular type of problem being solved in C++." Tailor made to treat difficult concepts in a simple and practical way, the book focuses on building a customizable model for the reader which helps in deducing the solution of any puzzle that one might encounter. The book presents the material one simple step at a time, so the reader can easily digest each concept before moving on. It uses examples that are as simple and as short as possible. This book does not to use any particular vendor’s version of C++ because, for learning the language, the details of a particular implementation are not as important as the language itself.   All code in the book was run against the Visual Studio (Microsoft) C++ compiler and Apple's Xcode C++ compiler to ensure accuracy.

Whether we like it or not we all feel that the world is uncertain. From choosing a new technology to selecting a job, we rarely know in advance what outcome will result from our decisions. Unfortunately, the standard theory of choice under uncertainty developed in the early forties and fifties turns out to be too rigid to take many tricky issues of choice under uncertainty into account. The good news is that we have now moved away from the early descriptively inadequate modeling of behavior. This book brings the reader into contact with the accomplished progress in individual decision making through the most recent contributions to uncertainty modeling and behavioral decision making. It also introduces the reader into the many subtle issues to be resolved for rational choice under uncertainty.
