Volume I teaches important concepts of machine organization in a language-independent fashion. Volume II teaches ways to write high-level language code to help the compiler produce high-quality machine code. By Randall Hyde, author of "The Art Of Assembly Language".
Today's programmers are often narrowly trained because the industry moves too fast. That's where this new series from Randall Hyde (author of The Art of Assembly Language) comes in. This, the first of four volumes, teaches important concepts of machine organization in a language-independent fashion, giving programmers what they need to know to write great code in any language, without the usual overhead of learning assembly language to master this topic. The Write Great Code series will help programmers make wiser choices with respect to programming statements and data types when writing software.

It's a critical lesson that today's computer science students aren't always being taught: How to carefully choose their high-level language statements to produce efficient code. Write Great Code, Volume 2: Thinking Low-Level, Writing High-Level shows software engineers what too many college and university courses don't - how compilers translate high-level language statements and data structures into machine code. Armed with this knowledge, they will make informed choices concerning the use of those high-level structures and 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.
