Starter Code

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int r, c;
    if (scanf("%d %d", &r, &c) == 2) {
        int a[r][c], b[r][c];
        for(int i=0; i<r; i++) {
            for(int j=0; j<c; j++) scanf("%d", &a[i][j]);
        }
        for(int i=0; i<r; i++) {
            for(int j=0; j<c; j++) scanf("%d", &b[i][j]);
        }

Intermediate

Embedded systems rely on efficient low-level programming to interact directly with hardware. In this course, you will learn how to write practical Embedded C programs used in real microcontroller-based systems. Rather than focusing only on theory, this course follows a practice-driven approach. Each lesson includes hands-on coding exercises that simulate real firmware development tasks used
