Talk about programming languages for hardware development [Copy link]

 

What languages have you used to develop hardware? I am not very knowledgeable, and I have only used C and assembly. Now it seems that Python can be used. What languages are currently used for hardware development, and what are the advantages of each? In addition, have you used the C automatically generated by MATLAB? Is that thing easy to use? I have tested it before, and the effect is very poor.

C language should be the most used and mature one. Now there are many new languages that can be used for embedded development, such as python, lua, js, etc. Although they are not as powerful as C language, they are very convenient in some specific applications.

assembly,c/c++,rust,go,java,js,python,lua,basic The characteristic of hardware programming is that it requires a language that can directly access memory. For languages that cannot directly access memory, it is necessary to encapsulate the functions in the underlying language and then call them, or call the functions provided by the operating system.

C and assembly should be considered software programming, while hardware programming is Verilog and VHDL.

Captain, are there really so many people using C++ now? I have seen fewer and fewer people using C++ around me, and MFC has been eliminated long ago. What is C++ generally used for now? What framework is used?

QT, GTK. But you don't have to use any framework. Most C++ developers directly use APIs, and write various engines, algorithms, and frameworks.

Generally, it is C, but there is also C++, and Python is rare.

C development belongs to embedded software development. I am not familiar with python. For operating system level, application layer and algorithm, I can use C++.

The most commonly used C++ library is QT. There are other libraries, but they are rare. C++ is not an upgrade of C, it is a different language!
