Hardware Engineering -> Writing Software

247 views

In computer hardware engineering, how does the electricity and the little bits of silicon work, what’s the “lowest level” of computer engineering and how does that work, and how does that scale and translate up into writing software? i.e. hardware -> machine code -> assembly -> higher level programming languages?

I think mostly I’m just curious about the bridge between software and hardware, and how to get there, but I have no idea where to start.

I’d rewrite the last bit.

Try:

Assembly -> lowlevel languages (c,c++,…) -> highlevel (python,java,…) -> very high level languages (prolog, other declaratives, etc)
