No, the book does not cover game logic or platform specifics.

The book is basically 3 examples from the simple series (hello world, Bitmap drawing, bitmap movement) on one platform (The simplest for each cpu), an introduction to the processor, and a description of each instruction in the ...

Hello,
I didn't know where else to post this but I'm curious about the book. I hope I don't come across as stupid or asking weird questions.
1. Does the book touch on game logic at all or is it simply an introduction, a taster for ASM programming?
2. What differences does the book have with the ...

If you didn't understand Keith's explanation I will add a little more to it so maybe you can understand it. To convert a hex value to an ASCII letter first notice that in the ASCII table there is a gap, of size 7,between the two groups of characters 0 to 9 and A to F, this obviously suggest to ...

Hello. So I'm looking at the hex converter you wrote, and I have two questions:
So the division works by loading the register b with 16 (because hex is base 16), subtracting the "main" number with it, and then adding a "tally" by increasing the c register until the register B gets to zero.

That I ...

Thank you so much.

Hello Martijn! Glad to see a fellow MSX fan onboard. My mom actually owned an MSX1 as a kid herself.

Weirdly, I came here primarily for the MSX.

Hi there,

Hello, my name is Nephesh. I'm a teenager, but find a strong interest in old hardware and software. I'm from Dubai, UAE.

I wish to learn 6502 and Z80 Assembly, and perhaps other architectures like x86 later on.

My primary architectures and fields of interest in terms of ASM (i.e. what I want to ...
