I'm glad many of these errors are being caught. It means there will be less mistakes when I start reading through it (soon). Cheesy So thank you for those who are/have found typos and errors. Smiley

Quote from: Lesson 11 Page 8
Let’s work on the routine to display the menu. I’ll give you the
code line by line, and explain it on the way. Create a new text file called
“ASMGorillasStartProgram.asm”, and include this in
“ASMGorillasMain.asm.”
Quote from: Lesson 13 Page 8
Finally, go to “ASMGorillasMenus.asm” and replace the top four
lines with the following line:

I think the file created in lesson 11 was supposed to be named "ASMGorillasMenus.asm".  Huh?

Wait, it's no wonder you're finding all these typos.  You're looking at the old lessons, and I know that because I canceled ASM Gorillas.

Can you edit your first post on your lesson thread?  I hope no one else makes the same mistake. Tongue

Start on lesson 11.

Hopefully you now have all the files you need, including the right ti83plus.inc Wink

Ok.  Thank you, Hot_Dog for directing me to the correct tutorials.  Smiley
I edited all of my old posts with the correct lessons.  

The last three errors are no longer in your lessons because you do not have those lessons anymore. Tongue

I just want to thank you because your tutorials are really teaching me ASM.  Cheesy

I'm glad to hear that, and you're welcome!

So, what's your opinion on lesson #5?  That's the one I was a little bit skeptical about.  Did it help a lot, did you not understand it, perhaps a neutral opinion?

I understood lesson 5.  I guess that is a neutral opinion.  

Quote from:  Lesson 11 Page 9
.option BM_SHD = 2
.option bm_min_w = 8
#include “ti83plus.inc”
.org $9D93
.db t2ByteTok, tAsmCmp

should be:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
3
4
5
.option BM_SHD = 2
.option bm_min_w = 96
#include “ti83plus.inc”
.org $9D93
.db t2ByteTok, tAsmCmp

Also:
Quote from: Lesson 13 Page 12
LD HL, Divide_By_4_23
LD DE, OP2 ;Division requires two numbers, so OP2 holds our second one.
LD BC, 9
LDIRB_CALL _FPDiv ;Multiply 1.5 by 3
ld hl, 0 ;Where we want to display the result on the screen
ld (penCol), hl
ld a, 11 ;Displays 10 digits
B_CALL _DispOP1A
B_CALL _getKey



Thanks to lesson 11, I can do this Tongue:
