Embedded C , Traps And Pitfalls

Embedded Engineering is just that. An engineering discipline. Like architecture, embedded engineers should use the discipline of proper construction methods and work within the rules. With practice, this will produce robust and safe systems automatically (and quickly). Once one has got over the learning curve of doing things rigorously, ones mind is free design with flair. Most of the worlds great buildings were designed using standard bricks or frames made from standard girders to stringent (and long) building regulations. Builders and architects who have been shown not to use the correct methods end up in court or no longer able to practice.
