Description
Thinking Low-Level, Writing High-Level, the second volume in Randall Hyde's Write Great Code series, focuses on high-level programming languages and code generation. You'll learn how to craft source code that results in good machine code once it's run through a compiler. This edition covers new topics such as programming languages like Swift and Java, code generation on modern 64-bit CPUs ARM processors, and stack-based architectures like the Java Virtual Machine. With an understanding of how compilers work, you'll be able to write source code that they can translate into elegant machine code. By mastering low-level programming concepts, you'll improve your overall coding skills and produce more efficient, optimized code.
