embedded programming

[dpatch]

Does any know what programs are bes to learn if you want to be an embedded programmer.

Embedded systems are typically running in fairly constrained environments so low level programming languages are used...

C would be a good place to start learning. Most modern C compilers can produce extremely efficient machine code, but its still worth learning about Assembler, and how to use it. Finally, Ada I believe is very popular for this area of programming because its very heavily type cast. From what I recall the HOOD methodology is probably worth investigating if you pursue Ada since it was pretty much designed with Ada in mind.
HOOD, if I recall correctly is Heirarchical Object Oriented Design.

Hope that helps. If you have any more questions about specific aspects of the above feel free to ask.
