But this will never be true in any low level language. You can spend a lot of time optimizing any single line of code manually, but software will always be faster than you. And will optimize any code you write beyond…
What you see there is the insane amount of complexity to create a high level feature of C: functions, plus compiler optimizations. What I don't understand about this argument is that you are calling C a high-level…
I find this article insightful, but missing the points it tries to deliver. What the article is very good at delivering is that current CPU's ISAs exports a model that doesn't exist in reality. Yes, we might call it…
