Common Intermediate Language (formerly known as MSIL, or Microsoft Intermediate Language) is a low-level assembly-type [programming language] using the .NET-platform. It is the language into which high-level .NET-languages such as C#, [Visual Basic].NET, J# and F# are compiled. CIL is then made into an executable (.exe) which can then be run. CIL is very complex compared to, say, C#, and a single [instruction] in C#, like: System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!"); ... could be written in CIL as: ldstr "Hello, World!" call void mscorlibSystem.Console::WriteLine(string) People writing their applications in CIL directly will usually get the benefits of more powerful (speedier) applications that take up less hard disk space.
