The ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) is a file format used for executables, object code, and shared libraries in Unix-like operating systems, providing a standardized structure for binary code that enables efficient linking and loading of programs. As a fundamental component of Linux and other Unix-like systems, understanding the ELF format is crucial for developers working on system programming, embedded systems, and software development for these platforms.
