Symbolic constants, pointer arithmetic, inline assembly code.
Used to implement compilers, operating systems, and database.

Spl : /S-P-L/ [abbrev, from Set Priority Level] The way traditional Unix
kernels implement mutual exclusion by running code at high interrupt
levels. Used in jargon to describe the act of tuning in or tuning out
ordinary communication. Classically, spl levels run from 1 to 7; "Fred's
at spl 6 today" would mean that he is very hard to interrupt. "Wait till
I finish this; I'll spl down then." See also interrupts locked out.
