Episode description
Wherein the wonders of C are explored.
But first, let Andreas tell you what's so great about Chalmers' approach to teaching computer engineering. Spoiler: starting with Haskell, close to math.
The tooling around C: cultural mystery meat.
Lars tries out a shocking plan for a productive framework for C!
It's very cool to be able to just poke memory. Memory, arrays, structs, and strings are discussed. Strings are a bundle of fun. Arrays are desugared.
Finally, a dive into the wonderful world of interoperability, both with and without C directly involved.
