description: 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 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.
