hi
well it is hard to find a startpoint for what i wanna say. i know programmers are ultimately divided in two groups, system programmers and application programmers. let's say i am going through system programming by developing kernel and maybe designing compilers as well. now the problem is how much should i know about assembly language and machine architecture and cpu and how to gather and integrate all those information?
as the second problem according to the topic of current thread and by imagining that i wanna exprience application programming it is really confusing to decide wethere to choose java technology or microsoft technologies for example. and generally to choose between many choces in databese systems,in programming langs,in kinds of applications to write and many other items specially when you wanna go through networking and cisco certifications. can we correlate cisco certifications like ccie with software engineering methods?
and as the last subject to point i dont really want to be a programmer that consumes classes by that i mean for example when i use System.writln()
method it is bothering for me just to use it by not knowing how it does its job internally and i wanna know how these i/o or other classes really work. please help me find my roadmap inside all these incoherent demands.
