I am a student having proficient knowledge of c++,c and python. But the thing is we only do application programs based on arithmetic and data structures. But I want to learn is how to program the hardwares of computer or any device attached to computer using these languages. So where should I refer to start with, for example if I want to program a device attached to a usb port then what should I do??

It all depends. You need to know what hardware required first. Please see my answer.

Solution 1

The logical place to start would be by investigating the basics of computer architecture, devices, and device drivers. There are lots of resources available in books and on the internet, including here at CodeProject.

This is true, but not every piece of knowledge is applicable in all cases. My 5. It depends though.

Sure, I agree with your comments, but it is another question that is far too large to answer comprehensively in a forum such as this. The OP (like many others) needs to work out how to use the resources available for research and learning.

Solution 3

It all depends on APIs and protocols specific types of hardware require.
Usually knowledge of C and C++ opens nearly all doors…

Yes completely agree with that. Just had a look at the discussion here: http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/209739/i-want-to-create-extremly-large-resolutioned-pictu#answer1. C++ is the way forward.
