    ASM questions

    Since you generally need to know C++ with Assembly, assembler, whatever, I was wondering: What does it look like? What does the hello world porgram look like. What is the first "hello world" thing for ASM?

    There's an asm forum over here that would be able to help you:
    www.flashdaddee.com/forums
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]

    1) You generally do NOT need any kind of assembly knowledge to work in C++.

    2) What KIND of Assembly language do you want to know about? Each processor tends to have at LEAST one assembly language associated with it, and often many. E.g. I've had to use 8 different assembly languages (not counting minor variants) for 4 different families of microprocessors over the past 5 years; there is not just one "assembly language" that works on all machines. Assembly languages are very processor-specific, and there may even be multiple languages (usually developed by different vendors) for the same processor.

    I think that he meant you need to know C++ to program much in ASM.

    Anyway, there's another thread about this here, and same deal goes for you as Ben_Robotics as far as those books I have go.
    Away.

    Yes, As Nor suggested this link is a very good starting point for those learning assembly. You can also find the hello world program written in High Level Assembly in the book presented on the site:

    program HelloWorld;
    #include ("stdlib.hhf")
    begin HelloWorld;

    stdout.put("Hello World", nl);

    end HelloWold;


    cheers,
    Ben
