Question about Energia "framework"

$

Hi Guys,

 

I am trying to put together a simple course for radio hams to introduce them to the MSP430 and Energia. A lot of them are really new to the digital world and I really have to keep things simple, but logical. 

 

My question is fundamental to this. During compilation (or possibly during the upload process) the Energia system must add code which calls the functions "setup" and "loop" and defines functions such as Pinmode and the various constants. What is the name for this code? 

 

Why do I need a name? Well the first keyword in the Blink program we all know and love is "void". As we all know "void" means no value is returned to the calling program. But what is the calling program? The people I am writing for are not stupid, and this will be the first question I'll get asked!

 

Regards,

 

Steve
