The second volume in the Write Great Code series supplies the critical information that today’s computer science students don’t often get from college and university courses: How to carefully choose their high-level language statements to produce efficient code. Write Great Code, Volume 2: Thinking Low-Level, Writing High-Level, teaches software engineers how compilers translate high-level language statements and data structures into machine code. Armed with this knowledge, a software engineer can make an informed choice concerning the use of those high-level structures to help the compiler produce far better machine code–all without having to give up the productivity and portability benefits of using a high-level language.

Write Great Code Thinking Low Level Writing High Level 1st Table of contents:

  • The High-Level Language Viewpoint

    • Overview of high-level programming languages (e.g., C, Python, Java).
    • How high-level languages abstract away low-level details.
    • Introduction to compiler design and how compilers translate high-level code to machine code.

  • Understanding the Machine

    • Basics of computer architecture and how machines execute code.
    • The role of the CPU, registers, memory, and the stack in program execution.
    • Data representation at the binary level.

  • The Role of Assembly Language

    • Why assembly language is important for low-level understanding.
    • Assembly language basics: syntax, instructions, and structure.
    • How assembly code maps to high-level code.

  • Building Blocks of Assembly Language

    • Registers and how they are used in assembly.
    • Understanding machine instructions and their effect on the CPU.
    • The stack, function calls, and memory management.

  • From Assembly to High-Level Code

    • How high-level concepts like loops and conditionals are implemented in assembly.
    • Translating high-level constructs into low-level operations.
    • Examples of translating high-level programs into assembly language.

  • Basic Optimizations: Improving Efficiency

    • How low-level code optimizations (like register usage and instruction scheduling) improve performance.
    • Practical tips for writing efficient high-level code informed by low-level principles.
    • Common performance pitfalls and how to avoid them.

  • The Role of the Compiler

    • Introduction to how compilers work and optimize high-level code.
    • The interaction between a compiler and assembly code.
    • Understanding compiler optimizations and their effects on performance.
