Notes:
Again, we can program in C language, and pass this C source file to the C compiler, which will generate an assembly source file.
It’s interesting and useful to note that the C54x C compiler is an optimizing C compiler. It has multiple optimization levels, which we will discuss a little bit later on. These optimization levels allow the programmer to generate more efficient code without hand-optimizing the code themselves. This saves the programmer a lot of time, and also produces very efficient code.
