syscall

import syscall

"Syscall" is a low-level standard library that operates at the system level, designed for interacting with the operating system and delving into the realm of C language integration. It essentially mirrors Linux system calls, using the same system call parameters, so there's no need for an in-depth explanation of the purpose of each system call. Each system call can be affected by the operating system, leading to potential errors, which can be captured using a "try" mechanism.
