 ====== Why engineering students should not use Arduino ======
-I am on of those tertiary educators in engineering (E&E) who is against the idea of Electronics Engineering students using Arduino for their bachelor degree project. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmI4W8X7vU8|This]] is a great example why that is the case.

 When your system depends on other people's work (i.e. you use library/libraries most of the time in Arduino), there is always a possibility it cannot be maintained in the future. And, for engineering students, the most important thing for you is to be competent at creating that 'building block' (@fundamental code/design) on your own... so that even if you do not need to write/develop any, your can still fix it when something no longer works.
