The book introduces static analysis. It covers both the basic theoretical foundations and the basic practical consideration underlying the design, implementation, and the use of static analysis tools. It is hard to find good references that could provide a quick and comprehensive introduction for non-experts. The scientific literature on static analysis is huge, and may seem hard for students or working engineers to get started quickly. Indeed, while we can recommend great scientific articles on many specific topics, these are often too advanced for a general audience. The purpose of this book is precisely to provide such a general introduction, that effectively provides the basic key concepts (both in the theory and in the practical point of view), gives the gist of the state of the art in program static analysis, and that can be read rather quickly and easily. More precisely, we cover the mathematical foundations of general static analysis frameworks (semantics, semantic abstraction, computation of program invariants), more advanced notions and techniques (abstractions for advanced programming features, and to answer a wide range of semantic questions), and techniques to implement and use static analysis tools

A. S. Ramsey (1867-1954) was a distinguished Cambridge mathematician and President of Magdalene College. He wrote several textbooks 'for the use of higher divisions in schools and for first year students at university'. This book on statics, published in 1934, was intended as a companion volume to his Dynamics of 1929 and like the latter was based upon his lectures to students of the mathematical tripos, but it assumes no prior knowledge of the subject, provides an introduction and offers more that 100 example problems with their solutions. Topics include vectors, forces acting at a point, moments, friction, centres of gravity, work and energy, and elasticity.
