Sorry, missed the acronym part. Anyway, spelling out the acronym only creates more confusion.
I don't understand the downvotes, if you downvoted, please tell why. I tried to be sensible in explaining what LLVM is and why it's hard to explain. And why it's no longer an acronym.
- lukesandberg 15y agopedantic: LLVM is not an acronym, it is an initialism. An acronym is when the abbreviated letters spell something pronounceable as a word (GNU, NATO, SCUBA, PATRIOT act...) an initialism is just an abbreviation using the first letter of every word in the abbreviated name or phrase. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronym_and_initialism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronym_and_initialism
