[sdiy] Programming Language of choice

[Jay Schwichtenberg]

About 95% of the embedded work I've done (which is what I do for work) is C or some sort of assembly language, the other 5% is C++. Depends on the scale of the project. If the project is small and using a tiny processor then assembly or C usually works. If doing something like an embedded Linux project then C or C++ is what I've used. Languages like AWK and Python I use when I have to do things like generate tables, massage data or re-format code.

Hello all,

 

As I continue my endeavor into embedded systems, I was wondering what the groups' consensus is on the most prominent programming language for a beginner in the world of MCUs. From my experience with Atmel AVR series MCUs and the TI MSP family of MCUs, "C" has been quite the valuable programming language to continue learning. As I expand my knowledge base into the, much larger world of MCUs, what would be the most valuable language to start learning at this point? Thank you in advance.   

 

Sincerely,
