AI Thread Summary
A Mechatronics Engineering student is seeking alternatives to the textbook "The INTEL Microprocessors" for their assembly language course, describing it as poorly coordinated. Suggestions for substitutes include searching for "assembler primer" online for better learning resources. A specific recommendation is made for Kip Irvin's book, which is praised for its clarity and effectiveness in teaching assembly language. The student is encouraged to check their school library for this resource.

Hello guys, I'm a Mechatronics Engineering student, we take a course on "assembly language" and use the textbook:

" The INTEL Microprocessors: 8086/8088, 80186/80188, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium, Pentium Pro Processor, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, and Core2 with 64-bit Extensions, 8e "

This book is not bad, but it's really one of the worst coordinated books I've ever used. My question is: is there any substitute to this book that I can use?

Help is appreciated. Thanks.

That's probably meant to be a reference book, not a primer to help someone learn assembly. Try doing a web search for "assembler primer" and you should find some good information.
 

Thread 'Learning Assembly and computer architecture for x86'

Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...

Thread 'Learning data structures and algorithms in different programming languages'

I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
