    Re: A: lol, what kind of "programmer" are you Hobbes? :)

    Back on topic, no ARM, but I'm interested in finding out what other kind of assemblers people have done. I've mucked about with S370/390 (@ last work), x86@ college & looked at a bit of sparc asm here.

    Currently checking out HLA, which is based on microsofts MASM (x86 assembler), just for the shear fun of it. HLA gives you a pascal like syntax and helps keep things a little, higher level, simply for readability. You can still do the usual assembly like stuff and the biggest bonus is it comes with a free 1500 page pdf file, which is essentially a gigantic college text book that walks through any beginner on just about every topic there is.

    Micro to thank for the link:

    It seems this guy has devoted his life to this book and assembler - its a one stop solution for someone like me.

    Hey cool, I was just on that site! Ammo for the "Internet Programming" thread (see the GreatDebate section).

    Hobbes: back-off! Or there will be serious recriminations :)

    Well I post looking for peoples opinions, suggestions on ARM and you subvert my thread. :p

    I have no problem with that, but just seems lately people tend to hijack other threads rather then start a new one.

    Damn, he noticed. :/

    Read the pints thread on AH.

    ARM is certainly interesting if you plan on developing applications for embedded products such as laptops, PDA's and cell phones, its design is used by many companies today.
    I can't reccomend any books though, maybe you should check out the reviews of ARM books on Amazon.com?
    I've touched on m68k, z80, 6502, 8051 assembler, but i'm mostly familiar with IA-32 and currently interested in Intels new Itanium Architecture.
    As for SPARC, MIPS..etc, I don't see any reason why people shouldn't learn a little on every CPU available today, its not hard to learn another assembler once you are familiar with one already, it can be a real eye opener to the inner workings of a computer and operating system and the main thing is that you learn alot.
    Thats my 2 cents.

    That book is absolutely fantastic...so comprehensive, fair play to the guy responsible, great book to read...everything is in it!
