This textbook teaches assembly and architecture fundamentals in a logical and concise manner for students with a reasonable CS1 backgrounds and are applicable to higher-level programmers as to their understanding of what is happing to the code that they write and how it behaves during compilation and execution
Written specifically for the Intel/Windows/DOS platform, this complete and fully updated study of assembly language teaches students to write and debug programs at the machine level.
Based on the Intel processor family, the text simplifies and demystifies concepts that students need to grasp before they can go on to more advanced computer architecture and operating systems courses.
Students put theory into practice through writing software at the machine level, creating a memorable experience that gives them the confidence to work in any OS/machine-oriented environment.
Proficiency in one other programming language, preferably Java, C, or C++, is recommended.
