title: How to view a file in ELF format?
body: <p>I am a windows user, and I have an ELF (Executable and linkable file) with .out extension that contains some C code that I have to read. How can I view the contents of this file?</p>
  
  <p>I have tried 'biew' and HT editor, but both fails to work properly on my system (Which is Windows 10, both those programs look severely outdated)</p>
  
  <p>Please don't suggest notepad. I have tried opening in it, and most of the contents of the file did not come up properly. Also once again, I'm a windows user, and I lack access to a linux system to try the shell commands suggested in other places.</p>
  
  <p>Also, I'm confused if the ELF file contains machine code(which means I have to convert it to a readable form after getting the file open) or just encrypted C code. Any help on this would be appreciated as well.</p>
