Dynamic Loaded Libraries
The last but not the least among libraries are dynamically loaded libraries
Dynamically loaded (DL) libraries are libraries that are loaded at times other than during the startup of a program.
They're particularly useful for implementing plugins or modules, because they permit waiting to load the plugin until it's needed
They're also useful for implementing interpreters that wish to occasionally compile their code into machine code and use the compiled version for efficiency purposes, all without stopping
