What do you mean by "programming codes and others"? Your god might be omniscient, but we are not. So please explain.

This here is a specialized forum for a certain kind of operating system. We can help you understand this special part of the IT world but chances are you might want to learn something completely different. So please answer the following (non-technical) questions:

What exactly do you want to do with a computer?

A computer is a tool and it is built to do certain things. "I want to understand computers" is like "i want to understand hammers". Blacksmiths, goldsmiths, carpenters and masons (and some other professions) all use hammers but their usage and the context it takes place in varies quite fundamentally. So tell us more about what you want to achieve and we can better explain what you might need to learn.

What do you know already?

The best explanation will not help if you are not able to understand it. Look up "Riemannian manifold" in the Wikipedia and chances are you will not be any wiser about what that is. Not because the explanation is bad (actually it is pretty good), but because to understand it you need to know many things, which themselves have the understanding of other things as prerequisite and so forth. So tell us where you are coming from and we can better explain where you should be going.

I hope this helps.
