Title: Pre-Release of Hot Dog's Ti-83+ ASM Lessons is now available!
Post by: Hot_Dog on October 07, 2010, 03:31:44 pm
For those of you who have trouble understanding Ti-83+ ASM and want to learn it--or for people who have enjoyed the lessons and want everything packed togeter--I have uploaded a draft of my ASM tutorials.  Please go here to get it:

http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=downloads;sa=downfile&id=582

The .zip file includes almost everything you need, although I still have to add some Mac files, the Appendix B sprite routine, and Learn ASM in 28 days.

This is a "beta," so please let me know if there's anything I should change!  When everything is ready, I will release the full file here, on Cemetech, on UnitedTI, and on ticalc.org

This looks great. I can't wait until I'm able to print these all off and read them instead of just glancing at them. ;D  Nice job. :D
Thanks! :)

LOL I remember trying "ASM in 28 days" and I didn't even get past day 2...
Great job!

A fair warning, though: There are a couple of things that fall right on the edge of a page, so your printer will not be able to print the whole thing.  This mostly refers to example programs.

Same here. Ever since I've made TI-BASIC programs, I've always wanted to learn assembly. And of course I also need to learn Axe. :P

ASM will help you on the road to Axe, and Axe will help you on the road to ASM.  Take your pick! ;D

Or how about learning both at the same time? jk :P

It's generally better to not try learning two languages at once, except maybe certain concepts.

I attempted to learn Asm twice and so far I have not written one successful Asm program.  However, I believe some of my success at Axe is due to my attempts to learn Asm.  They go hand in hand, so if you can, attempt to learn Asm if you want to learn Axe (even if you fail, try and understand the concepts).  Also, if you want to learn Asm, Axe can be a stepping stone that will help you on your way. :)

To be honest, Axe is pretty much a macro set ;D
You're practically programming in ASM.

yep but it is more advanced then that, moreover because commands can be integrated into each other which can't be done using 'regular' macro's. Axe made me want to port C over to the calc but that is far too hard for me but maybe one day...

I'm not entirely sure about that; I think even nested commands should be able to use macros.
As for C, there are C compilers for z80, but, in short, they are not very efficient; z80 is not a good architecture for C. :(
