Title: Assembly Language Programming for the Acorn Electron
Description: <p>
Every Acorn Electron is equipped with a powerful assembler. Sooner or later you will want to learn how to use it; this book will teach you.
</p>
<p>
The author assumes no prior knowledge of assembly language programming on the part of the reader, who is led from the simple functions of the machine to quite complex implementation.
</p>
<p>
To help the reader, the book contains many exercises for which full solutions are provided, the aim being to provide a complete self-contained instruction package. This is backed up by an accompanying cassette tape which contains all the listings in chapter 1 to 10, together with two additional utility programs (see inside the back of the book for further details).
