Embedded Programming with Modern C++  is highly valuable for each professional programmer.

In the past, embedded and system programming have had their pitfalls, but modern C++ has been designed to be a better language for this type of development, addressing the previous pitfalls/requirements explicitly. What are these requirements? Embedded systems deal with safety-critical systems, meaning they must guarantee high performance combined with limited resources, while also working in parallel.

The scope of this course goes beyond just embedded programming. Developers who write servers, games, or trading systems may especially benefit from this course because they also have to deal with safety-critical systems, high performance, reduced resources, and parallel execution in their jobs.

To get the most out of the course, you only need a basic understanding of C++. Building off this understanding, this course goes over all the essentials of embedded programming with Modern C++.

Let's get started!

Embedded Programming with Modern C++

## Template Parameter
Every template is parametrized by one or more template parameters, indicated in the parameter-list of the template.

C++ supports three different kinds of template parameter:


**1. Type parameter**
```c++
std::vector<int> vec = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; 
```
**2. Non-type parameter**
```c++
std::array<int, 5> arr = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
```
**3. Template-template Parameter**
```c++
template <typename T, template <typename, typename> class Cont> 
class Matrix{ ...
Matrix<int, std::vector> myIntVec;
```

## Types

Type parameters are of class types and fundamental types.


```c++
class Account;

template <typename T> 
class ClassTemplate{};

ClassTemplate<int> clTempInt; 
ClassTemplate<double> clTempDouble;
ClassTemplate<Account> clTempAccount;

ClassTemplate<std::string> clTempString;
```
## Non-Types

Non-types are template parameters that can be evaluated at compile time.

The following types are possible:
* Integers and enumerations
* Pointer on objects, functions, and on the attributes of a class 
* References to objects and functions
* `std::nullptr_t` constant

>Float point numbers and strings cannot be used as non-type parameters.
