I took this class in the fall of 1996, on the weekend. Since I took the notes for this class on my laptop, it was not a significant effort for me to provide them here for you to read, download, print out or whatever. I hope you find this service helpful.
I found a little tutorial on writing inline assembler in Delphi and Pascal. You'll probably find it interesting even if you don't know Pascal. For those Delphi/Pascal programmers among you, you should know about SWAG (Sourceware Archive Group), which provides cool code snippets and examples in Delphi and Pascal on a wide range of topics.
CHECK IT OUT!: A slick little Delphi application, with source, that will walk you through the steps of performing Binary arithmetic. This first edition performs 8-, 16- or 32-bit adding of binary numbers. Find it on my Utilities page.
Added 9/15/95, my list of Assembler Links
Please take note of the following disclaimers:
This is not an offer of tutoring or technical support. If you wish to send me mail (my address is mmowens at panix dot com), feel free to do so, but I won't answer questions about assembler. (mostly because I am not equipped to do so!)
Many basic and essential concepts in which you may be lacking, I may know and therefore these things that were discussed in class may not be included here. For example, in the first class, I already knew what is BIOS, CMOS a byte, and so on.
These notes may not be correct. These notes may not be complete. They may differ in order or content from the class you're taking now. These notes may contain my own opinions and interpretations of the material presented in class. It is unlikely that reading these notes will do you any good if you didn't actually attend.
I am offering these notes without anybody's permission, authorization or prior review, so this is not an official document of the College of Staten Island, or of Professor Owens. Neither the aforesaid parties, nor myself, nor anyone else you can think of may be held liable for inaccuracies or ideas with which you may or may not agree.
The notes are provided both in hypertext format, and as zipped .rtf files. (The rtf format is readable by most Windows word processing software, including Wordpad (95) and possibly by Macintosh (if you have any problems with the rtf's please let me know). You will need pkzip 2.04g to unzip the file. pkzip is shareware, downloadable from many locations on the web. Files will be named based on the date -- for example, the class on 8/31 was named 960831.zip.
