X<PIR (Parrot intermediate representation)>
Parrot Intermediate Representation (PIR) is Parrot's native low-level
-languageN<Parrot has a pure native assembly language called PASM, described in
-Chapter 9.>. PIR is fundamentally an assembly language, but it has some
-higher-level features such as operator syntax, syntactic sugar for subroutine
-and method calls, automatic register allocation, and more friendly conditional
-syntax. PIR is commonly used to write Parrot libraries -- including some of
-Parrot's compilers -- and is the target form when compiling high-level languages
-to Parrot.

Even so, PIR is more rigid and "close to the machine" then some higher-level
languages like C. X<.pir files> Files containing PIR code use the F<.pir>
