What is Embedded C++?

Embedded C++ is a version of the C++ programming language used for developing software that runs on embedded systems. These systems are typically resource-constrained devices such as microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), and other specialized processors found in appliances, automotive systems, industrial control systems, and various IoT devices. It often involves using a subset of the full C++ standard library and language features to optimize for memory usage, real-time performance, and power consumption. Techniques like manual memory management and careful selection of language constructs are common to ensure efficient operation within the limitations of the target hardware.
