Synopsis

• Practice programming in machine code using simple examples.
• Introduce other aspects on the fly: data segment, strings.
• Live coding two simple examples from Chapter 3.
• The print hex example is useful to recap “bit fiddling”, exercise number systems, and introduce OS calls, strings (ask user for input).
• Horner, Eratosthenes, Tortoise and Hare are useful to practice memory instructions and simple loops.
• The former are useful to discuss array processing.
