Learn how the EVMs storage system works by interacting with it through smart contracts using solidity's inline assembly/yul, taking you a step closer to bridging the gap between high and low level programming!
We'll walkthrough each encounter you will face by learning deal with them using bitwise operations alongside SLOAD and SSTORE to control the EVMs storage at will.
Storage
Storage is a persistent mapping with 2^256 - 1 available 32 byte words for each contract. When you set a state variableβs value it stores it at the assigned slot where it will remain in the EVM unless overridden with another value of the same type.
