Description

As mentioned in the article itself:

"In this article, I'm going to discuss the process that the computer goes through to compile source code into an executable program. I won't be clouding the issue with the Make environment, or Revision Control, like I necessarily did in the class. For this article, we're only going to discuss what happens after you type gcc test.c."

This article is quick to read, but gives fantastic information for someone who does not already know this.
