    Assembler code books for a beginner like me :D

    Hello

    Ive been doing some assembler code which althought I find it realy hard (Im only 14) its still alot more fun than C++ and VB. I would like to buy a book on it, I dont mind the price much, does anyone have any suggestions?

    I'm currently reading 'IBM PC Assembly Language and Programming' (fifth edition) by Peter Abel .....umm...... it's about 540 pages, and about £33.99.

    I haven't read any other asm books, so I don't really have much of a basis of comparison, but I think you should at least consider it as an option.

    Once you've read a book like this, and are a little more grounded in asm proging, I would suggest searching online for a more detailed list of commands and int functions.

    Also, (to anyone else reading this), does the idea of windows programming using asm (exclusively!) sound as god-damn-rediculous as it does to me?

    Yes. ASM in real apps should only be used inline or in single modules. Just to optimize the sh*t out of an algorithm.

    The Art of Assembly (see tutorials) is a free online book, but not exactly easy.
