Embedded_C_Programming

I will be documenting everything learning in Embedded C

main.c is the source file written by you and given to the compiler for compilation

the first file that is generated while compilation is the 'preprocessed file' that we call as main.i
- main.i = collection of your code and contents of <stdio.h>
- here compiler finds for the signature/prototypes of the functions that are taken from the standard library files into source code.
main.i is converted into main.s which is collection of assembly instructions
main.i ---> main.s = (Code generation stage) Higher level language code statements will be converted into processor architectural level mnemonics.
main.s ---> main.o (Assembler stage) Assembly level mnemonics are converted into opcodes (machine codes for instructions). (Object File)
