As in my previous post, OS programming is done through a serious compiled language. Of choice is C, C++, and Assembly (and some combination of those three).
Applications can be programmed in a variety of languages. Microsoft pushes its .NET series of languages, especially C# and VB .NET. Discounting C++ would be a bad mistake (take a look at Win32 API). And remember, you can still write Java and Python apps for Windows!
Linux is not confined to any one language either. If you take a sample of your favorite applications, you’ll see that they vary. Some are writen in C, some in C++, some in Mono (Linux version of C#), some in Java, some in Python, and so on.
You get no tutorials on C from me. You do get a link to google: http://google.com
All of the programming codes are used to create programs in Linux, Windows. An Operating system can be as simple as a Widget or as complex as Fedora Core or Vista.
If you want some exercises in any programming code type you could start at Unix Training Center.
C is used for MANY things..
most hardware / application drivers are made in C
