We love looking at hardcore electronics projects with a beefy microcontroller and hundreds, if not thousands, of lines of code at its center. But everyone needs to get there somehow. This tutorial ...
What is a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), and what does “real-time” mean anyway? What are the various kinds of state machines, and how to code them efficiently in C? What is object-oriented ...
How to get started with this useful new programming language. You've probably heard of Go. Like any new programming language, it took a while to mature and stabilize to the point where it became ...
Nowadays, it seems that when I've got an idea for a new program I want to write for Linux, if I search the Net, someone's already published an open-source version of it. Such was the case recently ...
The promise of RPA software is that it can create reusable and repeatable tasks quickly and easily. Companies such as UIPath, Automation Everywhere and Blue Prism provide 'low-code' or 'no-code' ...
Creating simple data classes in Java traditionally required substantial boilerplate code. Consider how we would represent Java’s mascots, Duke and Juggy: public class JavaMascot { private final String ...
As a result, this project is set up as a how-to for others looking to dive further into the world of microcontrollers that don’t have the same hand-holding setup as the Arduino. To take care of the ...
Instructors of a new self-paced version of Introduction to Computer Programming found that three weeks before the end of classes, about half of the students enrolled were halfway through the course ...
