"Terrific Topics meets the challenge of providing an integrated approach to the curriculum. While each unit has a key learning focus, either science or SOSE/HSIE, other learning areas are incorporated into the carefully planned teaching/learning sequence. The teaching material and activities are practical and ready to use, and outcomes are highlighted for each unit as a guide to assessment." -- Back cover.

It's a critical lesson that today's computer science students aren't always being taught: How to carefully choose their high-level language statements to produce efficient code. Write Great Code, Volume 2: Thinking Low-Level, Writing High-Level shows software engineers what too many college and university courses don't - how compilers translate high-level language statements and data structures into machine code. Armed with this knowledge, they will make informed choices concerning the use of those high-level structures and help the compiler produce far better machine code - all without having to give up the productivity and portability benefits of using a high-level language.
