Normally I just post about movies but I'm a software engineer by trade so I've got opinions on programming too.

Apparently it's a month of code or something because my dash is filled with people trying to learn Python. And that's great, because Python is a good language with a lot of support and job opportunities. I've just got some scattered thoughts that I thought I'd write down.

Python abstracts a number of useful concepts. It makes it easier to use, but it also means that if you don't understand the concepts then things might go wrong in ways you didn't expect. Memory management and pointer logic is so damn annoying, but you need to understand them. I learned these concepts by learning C++, hopefully there's an easier way these days.

Data structures and algorithms are the bread and butter of any real work (and they're pretty much all that come up in interviews) and they're language agnostic. If you don't know how to traverse a linked list, how to use recursion, what a hash map is for, etc. then you don't really know how to program. You'll pretty much never need to implement any of them from scratch, but you should know when to use them; think of them like building blocks in a Lego set.

Learning a new language is a hell of a lot easier after your first one. Going from Python to Java is mostly just syntax differences. Even "harder" languages like C++ mostly just mean more boilerplate while doing the same things. Learning a new spoken language in is hard, but learning a new programming language is generally closer to learning some new slang or a new accent. Lists in Python are called Vectors in C++, just like how french fries are called chips in London. If you know all the underlying concepts that are common to most programming languages then it's not a huge jump to a new one, at least if you're only doing all the most common stuff. (You will get tripped up by some of the minor differences though. Popping an item off of a stack in Python returns the element, but in Java it returns nothing. You have to read it with Top first. Definitely had a program fail due to that issue).

The above is not true for new paradigms. Python, C++ and Java are all iterative languages. You move to something functional like Haskell and you need a completely different way of thinking. Javascript (not in any way related to Java) has callbacks and I still don't quite have a good handle on them. Hardware languages like VHDL are all synchronous; every line of code in a program runs at the same time! That's a new way of thinking.

Python is stereotyped as a scripting language good only for glue programming or prototypes. It's excellent at those, but I've worked at a number of (successful) startups that all were Python on the backend. Python is robust enough and fast enough to be used for basically anything at this point, except maybe for embedded programming. If you do need the fastest speed possible then you can still drop in some raw C++ for the places you need it (one place I worked at had one very important piece of code in C++ because even milliseconds mattered there, but everything else was Python). The speed differences between Python and C++ are so much smaller these days that you only need them at the scale of the really big companies. It makes sense for Google to use C++ (and they use their own version of it to boot), but any company with less than 100 engineers is probably better off with Python in almost all cases. Honestly thought the best programming language is the one you like, and the one that you're good at.

Design patterns mostly don't matter. They really were only created to make up for language failures of C++; in the original design patterns book 17 of the 23 patterns were just core features of other contemporary languages like LISP. C++ was just really popular while also being kinda bad, so they were necessary. I don't think I've ever once thought about consciously using a design pattern since even before I graduated. Object oriented design is mostly in the same place. You'll use classes because it's a useful way to structure things but multiple inheritance and polymorphism and all the other terms you've learned really don't come into play too often and when they do you use the simplest possible form of them. Code should be simple and easy to understand so make it as simple as possible. As far as inheritance the most I'm willing to do is to have a class with abstract functions (i.e. classes where some functions are empty but are expected to be filled out by the child class) but even then there are usually good alternatives to this.

Related to the above: simple is best. Simple is elegant. If you solve a problem with 4000 lines of code using a bunch of esoteric data structures and language quirks, but someone else did it in 10 then I'll pick the 10. On the other hand a one liner function that requires a lot of unpacking, like a Python function with a bunch of nested lambdas, might be easier to read if you split it up a bit more. Time to read and understand the code is the most important metric, more important than runtime or memory use. You can optimize for the other two later if you have to, but simple has to prevail for the first pass otherwise it's going to be hard for other people to understand. In fact, it'll be hard for you to understand too when you come back to it 3 months later without any context.

Note that I've cut a few things for simplicity. For example: VHDL doesn't quite require every line to run at the same time, but it's still a major paradigm of the language that isn't present in most other languages.

Ok that was a lot to read. I guess I have more to say about programming than I thought. But the core ideas are: Python is pretty good, other languages don't need to be scary, learn your data structures and algorithms and above all keep your code simple and clean.

FPGA vs Microcontroller: The Ultimate Programmable Showdown

FPGA vs Microcontroller

Two types of integrated circuits (ICs) that are frequently contrasted are field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and microcontroller units (MCUs). Embedded systems and digital design are two typical applications for these ICs. It is possible to think of FPGA vs microcontroller as “small computers” that may be included into smaller gadgets and bigger systems.

Programmability and processing power are the main distinctions between FPGA and microcontroller as processors. FPGAs are more costly even though they have greater power and versatility. Microcontrollers are less expensive, but they also offer less customisation. Microcontrollers are quite powerful and affordable in many applications. Nonetheless, FPGAs are required for some demanding or evolving applications, such as those that need parallel processing.

FPGAs have hardware reprogrammability, in contrast to microcontrollers. Because of their distinctive design, users are able to alter the chip’s architecture to suit the needs of the application. Microcontrollers can only read one line of code, but FPGAs can handle many inputs. An FPGA can be programmed like a microcontroller, but not vice versa.

The FPGA is field-programmable gate array

FPGAs from Xilinx debuted in 1985. Processing power and adaptability are their hallmarks. Therefore, they are recommended for many DSP, prototyping, and HPC applications.

FPGAs, unlike ASICs, can be customised and reconfigured “in the field,” after production. FPGAs’ primary feature is customisation, but they also require programmability. FPGAs must be configured in verilog or VHDL, unlike ASICs. Programming an FPGA requires expertise, which increases costs and delays adoption. Generally, FPGAs need to be set upon startup, however some do have non-volatile memory that can save programming instructions after the device is turned down.

FPGA advantages

FPGAs are nonetheless helpful in applications that demand high performance, low latency, and real-time adaptability in spite of these difficulties. FPGAs work especially effectively in applications that need the following:

Quick prototyping

FPGAs may be readily configured into a variety of customised digital circuit types, avoiding the need for expensive and time-consuming fabrication processes and enabling faster deployments, evaluations, and modifications.

Hardware-based accelerated

The FPGA’s parallel processing capabilities are advantageous for demanding applications. For computationally demanding applications like machine learning algorithms, cryptography, and signal processing, FPGAs may provide considerable performance gains.

Personalisation

FPGAs are a versatile hardware option that are simple to customise to fit the demands of a given project.

Durability

Given that FPGAs may be updated and modified to meet changing project demands and technology standards, FPGA-based designs may have a longer hardware lifecycle.

FPGA parts

FPGAs are made up of a variety of programmable logic units connected by a programmable routing fabric in order to provide reconfigurability. The following are the key parts of a standard FPGA:

Blocks of configurable logic (CLBs)

In addition to providing computation capabilities, CLBs may have a limited number of simple logic components, including flip-flops for data storage, multiplexors, logic gates, and small look-up tables (LUTs).

Interconnects with programming capabilities

These linkages, which consist of wire segments connected by electrically programmable switches, offer routing channels between the various FPGA resources, enabling the development of unique digital circuits and a variety of topologies.

Blocks for I/O (IOBs)

Input output (I/O) blocks facilitate the interaction between an FPGA and other external devices by enabling the FPGA to receive data from and operate peripherals.

FPGA applications

Due to its versatility, FPGAs are used in many industries.

Aerospace and defence

FPGAs are the ideal option for image processing, secure communications, radar systems, and radar systems because they provide high-speed parallel processing that is useful for data collecting.

Systems of industrial control (ICS)

Power grids, oil refineries, and water treatment plants are just a few examples of the industrial control systems that use FPGAs, which are easily optimised to match the specific requirements of different industries. FPGAs can be utilised to create several automations and hardware-based encryption features for effective cybersecurity in these vital industries.

ASIC creation

New ASIC chips are frequently prototyped using FPGAs.

Automotive

FPGAs are ideally suited for advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS), sensor fusion, and GPS due to their sophisticated signal processing capabilities.

Information hubs

By optimising high-bandwidth, low-latency servers, networking, and storage infrastructure, FPGAs enhance the value of data centres.

Features of FPGAs

Processor core: Logic blocks that can be configured

Memory: Interface for external memory

auxiliary parts: Modifiable input/output blocks

Programming: Hardware description language (VHDL, Verilog) is used in programming.

Reconfigurability: Extremely reprogrammable and reconfigurable logic

What is a microcontroller?

Microcontrollers are a kind of small, pre-assembled ASIC that have an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) for storing bespoke programmes, memory (RAM), and a processor core (or cores). Microcontrollers, sometimes referred to as “system-on-a-chip (SoC)” solutions, are essentially tiny computers combined into a single piece of hardware that may be utilised separately or in larger embedded systems.

Because of their affordable accessibility, hobbyists and educators prefer consumer-grade microcontrollers, including the Arduino Starter Kit and Microchip Technology PIC, which can be customised using assembly language or mainstream programming languages (C, C++). Microcontrollers are frequently used in industrial applications and are also capable of managing increasingly difficult and important jobs. However, in more demanding applications, a microcontroller’s effectiveness may be limited by reduced processing power and memory resources.

Benefits of microcontrollers

Microcontrollers have numerous benefits despite their drawbacks, such as the following:

Small-scale layout

Microcontrollers combine all required parts onto a single, compact chip, making them useful in applications where weight and size are important considerations.

Energy effectiveness

Because they utilise little power, microcontrollers are perfect for battery-powered gadgets and other power-constrained applications.

Economical

By delivering a full SoC solution, microcontrollers reduce peripheral needs.All-purpose, low-cost microcontrollers can significantly cut project costs.

Adaptability

While less flexible than FPGA and microcontroller can be programmed for many applications. Software can change, update, and tune microcontrollers, but hardware cannot.

Parts of microcontrollers

Compact and capable, self-contained microcontrollers are an excellent option when reprogrammability is not a top concern. The essential parts of a microcontroller are as follows:

CPU, or central processing unit

The CPU, sometimes known as the “brain,” executes commands and manages processes.

Recall

Non-volatile memory (ROM, FLASH) stores the microcontroller’s programming code, while volatile memory (RAM) stores temporary data that could be lost if the system loses power.

Auxiliary

Depending on the application, a microcontroller may have communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C) and I/O interfaces like timers, counters, and ADCs.

Use cases for microcontrollers

Small, inexpensive, and non-volatile microcontrollers, in contrast to FPGAs, are widely used in contemporary electronics and are typically employed for certain purposes, such as the following:

Vehicle systems

Airbag deployment, engine control, and in-car infotainment systems all require microcontrollers.

End-user devices

Smartphones, smart TVs, and other household appliances especially IoT-connected ones use microcontrollers.

Automation in industry

Industrial applications include process automation, machinery control, and system monitoring are ideal uses for microcontrollers.

Medical equipment

Microcontrollers are frequently used in life-saving equipment including blood glucose monitors, pacemakers, and diagnostic instruments.

Features of a microcontroller

Central processing unit: Unchanged CPU Memory: ROM/Flash and integrated RAM Auxiliary parts: Integrated I/O interfaces for Software (C, Assembly) Programming Limited reconfigurability; firmware upgrades

Important distinctions between microcontrollers and FPGAs

A number of significant distinctions between FPGA and microcontroller should be taken into account when comparing them, including developer requirements, hardware architecture, processing power, and capabilities.

Hardware configuration

FPGA: Easy-to-customize programmable logic blocks and interconnects for digital circuits. Microcontroller: A fixed-architecture microcontroller contains a CPU, memory, and peripherals.

Capabilities for processing

FPGA: Multiple simultaneous processes are made possible by advanced parallel processing. Microcontroller: Capable of handling only one instruction at a time, microcontrollers are made for sequential processing.

Power usage

FPGA: Power consumption is usually higher than that of microcontrollers. Microcontroller: Designed to use less power, ideal for applications that run on batteries.

Coding

FPGA: Configuring and debugging this device requires specific understanding of hardware description languages. Microcontroller: Software development languages such as Javascript, Python, C, C++, and assembly languages can be used to programming microcontrollers.

Price

FPGA: FPGA hardware offers more power but comes with a higher price tag due to its higher power consumption and need for specialised programming abilities. It also requires advanced expertise. Microcontroller: Typically, a less expensive option that is readily available off the shelf, uses less power, and supports more widely used programming languages.

Flexibility

FPGA: Compared to microcontrollers, FPGAs are much more flexible and enable hardware customisation. Microcontroller: Compared to FPGAs, microcontrollers only provide surface-level customisation, despite being well-suited for a wide range of applications.

Examine the infrastructure solutions offered by IBM

pasting my vhdl code into microsoft word for the report and seeing all the underlines pop up while word loses its mind

"a semicolon isn't usually used here" you know nothing. shut up

[moose-mousse]

That is a very neat idea!

If you like things like that you might want to look into VHDL ( I learned that... some years ago, but have not touched it since ) or Verilog.

They are... programming languages for making logic gate logic.

You combine that with an FPGA, which is essentially a whole lot of NAND gates ( Which as I said, can represent any logic gate system ), and then you can make hardware... via software.

And yes, these essentially do things like your idea. Things that would take a CPU aaaaages to do, can be done very very fast. So you "just" have normal C code, but if it runs onto one of the problems it have hardware for, it uses the hardware.

This is also how graphics cards work, or just floating point operations!

It is insanely cool! :D

What is half-adder and full-adder combinational circuits?

So this question came up in the codeblr discord server, and I thought I would share my answer here too :3

First, a combinational circuit simply means a circuit where the outputs only depends on its input. ( combinational means "Combine" as in, combining the inputs to give some output )

It is a bit like a pure function. It is opposed to circuits like latches which remembers 1 bit. Their output depends on their inputs AND their state.

These circuits can be shown via their logic gates, or truth tables. I will explain using only words and the circuits, but you can look up the truth tablet for each of the circuits I talk about to help understand.

Ok, so an in the case of electronics is a circuit made with logic gates ( I... assume you know what they are... Otherwise ask and I can explain them too ) that adds 2 binary numbers, each which have only 1 character. 

So one number is 1 or 0

And the other number is 1 or 0

So the possible outputs are are 0, 1 and 2.

Since you can only express from 0 to 1 with one binary number, and 0 to 3 with 2, we need to output 2 binary numbers to give the answer. So the output is 2 binary numbers

00 = 0

01 = 1

10 = 2

11 = 3 // This can never happen with a half adder. The max possible result is 2

Each character will be represented with a wire, and a wire is a 0 if it is low voltage (usually ground, or 0 volts) and a 1 if it is high voltage (Voltage depends. Can be 5 volts, 3.3, 12  or something else. )

BUT if you only use half adders, you can ONLY add 2 single character binary numbers together. Never more.

If you want to add more together, you need a full adder. This takes 3 single character binary numbers, and adds them and outputs a single 2 character number.

This means it have 3 inputs and 2 outputs.

We have 2 outputs because we need to give a result that is 0, 1, 2 or 3

Same binary as before, except now we CAN get a 11 (which is 3)

And we can chain full adders together to count as many inputs as we want.

So why ever use a half adder? Well, every logic gate cirquit can be made of NAND (Not and) gates, so we usually compare complexity in how many NAND gates it would take to make a circuit. More NAND gates needed means the circuit is slower and more expensive to make.

A half adder takes 5 NAND gates to make

A full adder takes 9 NAND gates.

So only use a full adder if you need one.

I hope that made sense, and was useful :3
