Libraries on Standalone arduino

hi [newb question incoming]

sorry stupid question have been searching web answers yet none have cleared up

how libraries implemented in standalone micro-controllers (ex standalone arduino). example have library max7219 , size of library 13kb. when compile sample program using library comes out 4000bytes or so.

how manage libraries in standalone micro-controllers , take space.

is final compiled program size actual size on uc? or need account libraries.

thanks lot

 suppose max7219 library sets digit specified hexadecimal value code

code: [select]

lc.setdigit(0,4,(byte)ones,false);

the compiled program in binary file microcontroller understand. if binary files tells micro-controller operate max7219 in such way, example turn segment on or segment b off. compiled program specify pins turn on/off , program follows method using conditions?

sorry newb question confused bit
