#131348 - Learn assembler first.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Jsathish (You have no idea how glad I am for "copy and paste" and that I don't have to try and pronounce your name),

My suggestion is that you do not start by learning to program µ-controllers in C, but that you learn to do so in assembler first. Doing so will produce two effects, both of which are desirable. First, it will make you intimately familiar with the actual hardware of the µ-controller. This is crucially important to your ability to efficiently exploit the µ-controller's hardware. Second, it will prepare you to better use C to program your µ-controllers. It will make you understand just what that C compiler is doing for you, and hopefully well enough to know what not to expect it to do for you.

Good luck,

Joe
