What every programmer should know about processors. We will learn:

- The principles of processors, the hardware component that makes the calculations in your computer.

- How processor instructions work, plus a peek at the complexity behind the function abstraction.

- Why compilers exist and how they broadly work.

- How to make computers faster by using multi-threading, caching, complex instructions, and pipelines.

- What the trade-offs are between processor performance and security.

This is an evergreen classic programming book, focused on foundational principles rather than expiring knowledge trends. We feel 10 bucks is a fair price per digital volume and we don’t do sales. It’s a great deal, anytime! Feel free to buy the book now, or later, or whenever. The book will still be relevant, though you might encounter the monsters sooner…
