    Assembly Language Programming

    Hi, I want to learn Assembly Lang. Programming, and I want to start from the basics in 8086. Which book would one recommend for a newbie, which explains the architecture, organization and assembly language.

    I learned by reading the MASM manual, actually. It is very eloquent... though it will only teach you MASM syntax.

    Google "The Art of Assembly Language" by Randell Hyde.

    I have it sitting here from the library and haven't read much, but it looks like a fairly decent, dense 900 pages starting with "Hello World". It's by some HLA guru and I notice for now for free at his web site:

    http://webster.cs.ucr.edu

    So go decide for yourself.
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
    3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
    cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge

    Not a C question, moved.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
