Single Treading is easy and hard at the same time. I Program MCU with only one core and no real hardware support for preemtive multi tasking. i sometimes have to resort to interupts to get a somewhat Multitasking but on the other hand my code runs as i have wrote it. It makes you think more about the problem. i see may programs nowerdays just throwing Threads, co-routines and memory on problems till the speed is acceptable. sorry my english no native speaker, and if i use AI to make the wording better i get complains using AI....

I've read that the (first?) preemptive multi-tasking was implemented in Apollo lander, to leave more processing power to more critical sensors. No one though of it in such general terms though.
