A ridiculously long time ago, I took PACE solder training. At the time, someone said it was the training program that NASA employees had to take to be one of their solder jockies. I’m count it as one of the best investments that I ever made in my career. I think of soldering as one of my superpowers now.

We have to unpack all that is going on in that get stack pointer statement. The function getstackpointer() returns a value. The (int*) transforms that into “the address of that return value” which will be 16 bits large. Then that 16 bit address is assigned to the multi stack variable. The author is asking us to modify the list of function names in the taskpnt function since (s)he doesn’t know what we will be doing. So that is up to us. So task1, task2, and so on, are functions that we write to do one specific thing. Something atomic, like SwitchOnLED(LED1) or SwitchGPIO

Hey, thanks for the IPC Certification stuff. I also have gone through these certifications and would like to suggest BEST Inc (https://ipctraining.com/) for getting the best training in IPC. They have experienced IPC trainers and also offer Mobile training facility as well. Also, one more training center is there near Illinois i.e EPTAC Training Center(https://www.eptac.com/) which is in good competition with BEST Inc. Out of these two, you can choose any.

Just to follow up ... I found another website tonight called http://www.soldertraining.com/. It is another excellent resource for electronic assembly knowledge. I find the Standards & Manuals - Design attractive and I am considering purchasing a set for myself.
