Assembly Language Step-by-Step - Programming with DOS and Linux

This updated and expanded edition of the bestselling guide to assembly programming begins
with a highly accessible overview of the internal operations of the PC. It then builds
systematically to cover all the steps involved in writing, testing, and debugging assembly
programs. It also provides valuable how-to information on using procedures and macros. The
only guide to assembly programming covering both DOS and Linux, the book presents
working example programs for both operating systems, and introduces Conditional
Assembly—a technique for assembling for both DOS and Linux systems from a single source
file.
