RTS (Request to Send) This output signal is a general-purpose, one-bit output port.
It can be set low by programming the appropriate bit in the Command instruction. The
RTS output signal is normally used for modem control.
CTS (Clear to Send) A low on this input enables the 8251 to transmit serial data if the
T × Enable bit in the command byte is set to a ‘one’. If either a T × Enable OFF or CTS
OFF occurs while the transmitter is in operation, the transmitter will transmit all the data
in the USART written prior to the Transmitter Disable command before shutting down.

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
