Programming › Re: for beginner C++ Programmers by 9free(m): 5:04am On Nov 27, 2013
Olyboy16: well...C works well on embedded systems and control engines..bt C is mostly recomended over c ignoring the fact that most modern and latest systems today(servers, OS, control interfaces) are programmed using c . I read through an online article some months ago on the use of c to create control interfaces for networks of security systems among servers, buildings e.t.c..

There ar also fine refinements of c/c worth mentioning when it comes to embedded systems..MISRA C/C ..is a good one, the good part is, their standards clips with ANSI.

http://www.embedded.com/design/safety-and-security/4413297/Build-secure-and-reliable-embedded-systems-with-MISRA-C-C-

and also, depending on how low-leveled your control interface requirement is, c should handle things just fine...c is used mostly in automated vehicle programming...
Good to know.
For now I will just stick to C for my projects on embedded systems as I want to be as close as posible to the machine code. It will really make things easy for me expecially during debugging.
From your writeup you sound knowledgeable and experienced in this area. Have you worked on any embedded system platform: PIC Microcontrollers, ATmel AVR, 8051, 8085, or Aduino?
I will also look at the MISRA C/C++. Thanks for the link.

Olyboy16: true talk!! But most people prefer c++, quicker and improved++ i do too
Yea, C++ is an improved version of C but I am yet read anywhere it was recommended for Control Engineering program development.
Have you seen any?.

Olyboy16: wich 1 is ANSI c again, pple just lov confusin demselves
Bros, ANSI C is the standard C language. You may want to read from google....
Am interested in it cos I want to concentrate on microprocessor, microcontroller and industrial automation programming. From what I have read so far, it is the only high level language closet to Assembly/machine language which can be used to archieved that aim.

Audacius: The factors that keep the stock market alive are at it again. Fear/Greed. Interestingly, they are justified. They are "virtues" you must have. The "foolish buyers" of Transcorp and Oando now might start declaring "Mama Ejiro" later and the cautious ones go green with jealousy. If the table turns, the Nostradamuses will stomp around happily chanting "I said it. I warned you all. Thank God I exited the bus". Just be a CEO of your portfolio and be responsible for your decision so that you don't oscillate between happiness and sadness like a fan. May God bless this group - enrichingly entertaining.
Oga Oracle, welcome on board.
By their post you know them...

bigx: Exactly, I bought Oando @ 10. last month when everybody was bashing it and sold at almost 16 on friday when I saw everybody struggling to get in.
Didnt Buy Transcorp though, I learnt my lesson from ABC transport that I tried to chase and I'm sitting on an almost 20% loss for that.
I don't buy stocks that I can not hold for a minimum period of Five Years.......

gsparks01: thanks man, so you advise not to buy from China?
If you're only powering resistive low power devices like Light bulbs, PCs, Laptops, TVs, Home threatre, e.t.c go for china products.
If you intend to power high power resistive and inductive loads like AirCon, Fans, Electric kettles, Room heaters e.t.c go for US/EU
Ensure you buy pure sine wave inverters or modified sine wave inverters in a worst case scenario wether you are buying from china, US or EU markets.
Peace.

gsparks01: Please I need somebody who knows much about inverters to share what he/she knows, and if I can get from the Chinese markets
Inverters come in different capacities(VA) and are used for converting DC(Batteries preferable dry cell or Gel)voltages to AC voltage. Before you buy for Nigerian market, make sure the output voltage is 220volts, frequency 50Hz, Modified or Pure sine wave output and that it has an inbuilt battery charger.
Chinese inverter are made with high frequency transformers or what Nigerians call Chopper transformers. The have very high conversion efficiency, cheap and affordable but output power is usually LOW compare to American or European inverters that are build with standard power or magnetic/ferrate core transformers. They output high power, rugged, expensive to buy and have conversion efficiency of at most 90percent.

timothy001:

@

@All i think dat's figure is wrong.It should be divided by 4 and not 3.So should be 2,500 for 3mth at 10% for a 100k Investment.
But i dont think it's worth it..
My Oga, that is because you're investing in hundreds of thousands nah...... oya just think of the monies that Oga feelamong and Oga Elia who are investing in hundreds of millions and hundreds of billions respectively will be pocketing per annum.
Bros, my humble observation is that in the long run, TBills favours the very deep pocket investors more than any other class of investors.

mercylicious: For newbies, beware of illiquid stocks. The price maybe rising but getting a buyer maybe a big issue and b4 u know it, the price reverts car park and the profit becomes paper profit. Sum of them, u can't even sell them even at 50k. [b]I still have over 1m units of ftncocoa trapped in my portfolio.[/b]Am waiting for the new bull era to dump on the next mugu.

B4 u buy, check the daily vols traded for a week or a month to be sure u can jump out wen u want. Or invest small amt of money in it dt u can be able to offload at the right time, or convert to long term.
No be only you ooooohhhhh
I get 200K units of UnionHomes, 200K units of BecoPet, and 150K units of DaarCom for my longest tie portfolio. Na these yeye stocks I use welcome myself into the NSE in 2008.
I don find buyers tire for those stocks since then but I no see. I just simply moved them into my longest time portfolio for my grand grand children. grin
The current newbies into the NSE dey lucky well well as dem dey learn from our past mistakes.
