ELF Header

The first portion of any ELF file is the ELF header. This generally provides offsets to other headers (program headers and section headers) within an ELF.

typedef struct {
  unsigned char e_ident[EI_NIDENT];
 uint16_t e_type;

	gcc -o processor prgram_one.c
	gcc -o writer prgram_two.c
	gcc -o pipe pipe.c
