Interview Questionnaire 

3 Questions

  • Q1. Define software for embedded?
  • Ans. 

    Software designed to run on embedded systems with limited resources and specific functions.

    • Embedded software is tailored to the specific hardware it runs on.

    • It is often written in low-level languages like C or assembly.

    • It must be efficient and optimized for limited resources like memory and processing power.

    • Examples include firmware for a smart thermostat or a car's engine control unit.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. For an embedded device what do you prefer? with OS or without OS?
  • Ans. 

    It depends on the requirements and constraints of the project.

    • If the project has limited resources, a bare-metal approach without an OS may be more appropriate.

    • If the project requires complex functionality and multitasking, an OS may be necessary.

    • An OS can provide better security and easier maintenance.

    • Examples of OS for embedded devices are FreeRTOS, uC/OS, and Linux.

    • Consider the cost and time-to-market implications o

Round 2 - One-on-one 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. Why we should use auto keyword in local scope only
  • Ans. 

    Using auto keyword in local scope only ensures type safety and avoids unintended side effects.

    • Auto keyword deduces the type of the variable from its initializer expression.

    • Using auto in local scope avoids unintended type conversions and promotes type safety.

    • Auto keyword should not be used for function parameters or class members.

    • Example: auto x = 10; // x is deduced as int

    • Example: auto y = 3.14; // y is deduced as doub

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Why the default value of reg keyword is garbage value only
  • Ans. 

    The default value of reg keyword is garbage value due to performance optimization.

    • Garbage value is faster to assign than initializing to a specific value.

    • Initializing to a specific value would require additional instructions and memory access.

    • The value of reg keyword is expected to be overwritten before use.

    • Garbage value can help in detecting uninitialized variables during testing.

    • Example: int x; // x will have a garba
