The second edition of the second volume in the highly-regarded Write Great Code series, teachinh readers how to produce better machine code by directing the actions of their chosen compiler. This second edition has been updated to cover high-level programming languages (such as Swift and Java) as well as code generation on 64-bit CPUsARM, the Java Virtual Machine, and the Microsoft Common Runtime.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Praise for the first edition of Write Great Code, Volume 2:
"Set aside some money and buy this book, or get a friend to buy it and get it from them while still in the store. When you get home, read it TWICE so that you master what is in these pages. Then read it again."
-DevCity
"Write Great Code Volume 2 exceeds its goal of helping developers pay more attention to application performance when writing applications in high-level languages. This book is a must for any high-level application developer.
-Free Software Magazine
"As a high-level-language programmer, if you want to know what's really going on with your programs, you need to spend a little time learning assembly language-and you won't find an easier introduction."
-DevX
"This is a good book. A very very good book. Frankly, I'm blown away at the quality of writing."
-Toronto Ruby User Group
