    Assembler

    I'm wanting to learn a little bit of assembly programming to build my knowledge and just for the fun of it, I'm not sure what assembler to use and what books/tutorials i need to be able to learn. I've tried google with very little help

    Here's a good resource - ASM Community Messageboard - Index

    There's a Wrox book, but its focused on Linux - Professional Assembly Language Programming Programmer to Programmer: Amazon.co.uk: Richard Blum: Books

    Hey, Jeff Duntemann has a revision to his book - Assembly Language Step-by-Step: Programming with Linux: Amazon.co.uk: Jeff Duntemann: Books
    I had that in its first edition. If its as good as that then its worth a look (its focused on Linux too)

    I would add this to Fordy's list (it is about 32 bit Linux assembly programming). Just scroll down and click on "Download Area."

    No friends of Randall Hyde here?

    As far as the assembler goes, I'd have to recommend NASM.

    Of course, assuming that you would like to study x86 assembly...

    I liked Randall until he dove into that weird pseudo-assembler language of his and started promoting it over pure assembly.

    I was thinking the same thing.
