gollark: The shell script, when run, writes GCC out to a temporary file, writes out your code, compiles it with optimization at minimum and executes it.
gollark: The WHY compiler compiles your C-ish source into a valid C program, then puts that into a random heredoc in a shell script for later retrieval, then embeds the entire GCC for that architecture into that shell script file via some weird trick with line by line execution.
gollark: It uses GCC to JIT-compile C code.
gollark: Oh, like WHY, my esolang.
gollark: It's better than interpretation because it can be faster (generally stuff uses a hybrid approach), and than precompilation because you don't need different binaries for every arch.
