ALX Low Level Programming About A low-level programming language is a programming language that provides little or no abstraction from a computer's instruction set architecture—commands or functions in the language map closely to processor instructions. Generally this refers to either machine code or assembly language. The word "low" refers to the small or nonexistent amount of abstraction between the language and machine language; because of this, low-level languages are sometimes described as being "close to the hardware". Programs written in low-level languages tend to be relatively non-portable

At Alx School, there are several tracks to become a full stack software engineer. One of those tracks is the low level programming track which covers the following:

Compilation Commenting code and following a coding style standard Variables, types, operators, expressions, loops, nested loops Conditional statements Functions Pre-processor, macros, header files, pointers, double pointers, function pointers, pointer arithmetic Makefiles Sorting and search algorithms and more! Requirements Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

gcc 4.8.4 (-Wall, -Werror, -Wextra, and -pedantic flags)
