Programming - Learn Assembly...

Jonathan Rigdon

This book consists of two titles, which are the following: 
1 - Assembly language is often considered a bridge between high-level programming languages and machine code. Unlike high-level languages such as Python or C, which use human-readable syntax and abstract away many details of the underlying hardware, assembly language provides a more direct representation of the CPU's operations. Each assembly language instruction corresponds to a specific operation that the CPU can perform, such as loading data from memory, performing arithmetic calculations, or branching based on conditions. These instructions are typically represented using mnemonic codes, which are easier for humans to understand compared to the binary machine code instructions that the CPU actually executes. 
2 - Computer science is a field that deals with the study of computers and computational systems. It encompasses both the theoretical and practical aspects of computing, including algorithms, data structures, programming languages, software engineering, and more. It's about understanding how computers work, how they can solve problems, and how they interact with humans and other systems.
