Coursebook
Welcome to the systems programming coursebook!
This repository houses a high-quality, open-source introductory systems programming textbook used by the CS 341: System Programming course at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
The book assumes that you have taken a programming language course and are familiar with assembly instructions.
All of the code and instruction will be in C, as it is the de-facto language of the Linux Kernel.
The Coursebook is an aim to standardize and build upon Angrave's original wikibook experiment.
The most recent version of the coursebook as a single pdf is here: main.pdf.
Overview
Goals
- Improve the quality and rigour of the original wikibook while maintaining openness.
- Improve the factualness by including citations, footnotes, extended reading, and a glossary.
- Have exports in the form of pdf, markdown, and html.
- Automagically build so writers can focus on writing.
