To be fair, the first sentence states that it supports a subset of C.
>SectorC is a C compiler written in x86-16 assembly that fits within the 512 byte boot sector of an x86 machine. It supports a subset of C that is large enough to write real and interesting programs.
The post title could include this, but perhaps it's a little verbose.
In any case, agreed it's impressive to fit it in 512 bytes!
- tomjakubowski 3y agoi'm sorry to nitpick but it's the second sentence which mentions it only supports a subset, not the first sentence. and the first sentence calls it a "C compiler" without qualification
- jcul 3y agoAh yes you're correct, I should have said first paragraph.
