Assembly Programming Book (not for "Dummies" or Intro)

[Sarunas Vancevicius]

Hi All,

I'm looking for an assembly language programming book, and I'm aware of a
similar thread few days ago.

Basically, I have been reading "Assembly Language Step-by-step: Programming
with DOS and Linux", Jeff Duntemann, it is a good book, but I want something
which goes a bit faster and maybe into more depth.

So is there a recommend book which isn't for "Dummies" or Introduction?
Something which is like K&R2? We're using tasm here at uni, but I'll most
likely be using nasm at home.

Thanks,

You might be interested in my free on-line book at:

It uses NASM.

Very nice book!

Any chance of having one or more chapters available for FASM (flat
assembler)?

I'm under the impression that FASM is the active & steadily-growing hier
to NASM that is hindered only by docs that are weaker than both NASM and
MASM.

ps

I'm not saying FASM is better than NASM. I don't know because I haven't
used either of them. I'm just stating an impression I got by reading
FAQs and forum posts about both.

Nasm and Fasm are similar enough that few changes would be
needed for the book itself - an appendix (or prependix) on
"differences if you're using Fasm" might be enough. The
example code would need some minor "translation" to assemble
with Fasm... Shouldn't be too big a project...

I'm a "devout Nasmist", and have only taken a quick look at
Fasm. I don't see any overwhelming reason to switch, but
Fasm looks like a *very* nice assembler. (much faster than
Nasm!) Congratulations to Tomasz for a real nice job! The
Fasm-fans are working like mad to close the "documentation
gap" - I wouldn't be surprised if someone has already
translated Dr. Carter's code. If not, it shouldn't be that
hard...

Chewy509/Darren has just posted that Fasm has 64-bit
support. That would put Fasm out in front! (there's at least
one 64-bit Nasm fork, but none available to the public,
AFAIK)

Best,
Frank
