Usborne Z80 Machine Code for Beginners

[@daspsych3156]

I remember this book. Never got into it at the time, but, many years later, for my degree, I used 8086 MC to speed up my C++ routines that directly addressed the video memory. There wasn't too much difference except the larger registers.

I literally got my first taste of 6502 machine code using this book as a kid. My dad took the p out of me for even trying, but he’s never been interested in anything that didn’t have two wheels and an engine.

I own this book. At my peak (age 14) I wrote some machine code (decimal) for a Space Invaders clone I made on the Vic-20. The function was to move all the on screen invaders left or right as far as I can remember. Had sound, graphics and joystick control but was mainly written in BASIC. Sold the Vic-20 so the code is long gone. Would love to see how it stacked up years later. "Those were the days" LOL ...

Great stuff! as someone who spent literally hundreds of hours working on games in basic back in the day, learning machine code was a dream of mine. I spent a forture on books like this but with me being rather dim and incredibly slow to learn, I failed all the time. Sometimes not even getting past two chapters. I will watch this with interest. I don't believe I'll learn enough to use it (heck, even using AGD is beyond me it seems) but I'm still really interested and wish you the best of luck with it!

This book is perfect. It combines important concepts and easy analogies(and interesting cartoons!). Thank you very much, l will use it as a way to revise my knowledge

[@kylek.3689]

These books basically kicked off my interest in computer programming as a whole, and I didn't know who published the books until this video was recommended to me. Thank you!

[@SteeleDynamics]

Great walkthrough of a classic text

[@tailzer42]

Definitely would watch a series on this. Nice and clearly presented. Thanks!

[@bertkoerts3991]

Don’t worry about errors. Many hobbyists do this after their retirement and they are happy with every thought. Am currently building a 3 bit demo of Harvard architecture, is not going to change the world, but the process is highly satisfying 👍😊 Keep at it!

[@kamilziemian995]

What errors? You mean in this video?

[@HappyCodingZX]

Thanks for all the likes guys, I am working on a second one now :)

[@HendrikBez]

Thank you, for explaining it for us, hopefully there will be more videos on this.

[@retrocomputeruser]

I have only just found this channel after watching lots of 'The Spectrum Show' by Paul Jenkinson. Had to like and subscribe as this will be interesting. Also watching all the AGD+ tutorials is going to keep me busy.

[@HappyCodingZX]

welcome aboard!

[@jennifercoates8070]

Thank you! I hope there are more videos like this one

[@KlausWulfenbach]

I would love a whole series on this.

[@robm8809]

I definitely would watch a series like this, thanks. :)

[@prasannasilva7754]

Interesting! please continue the series.

[@FrozenWell]

Would love to watch more on machine code

[@mccliff6250]

Thanks for the information 😊

[@sdfsdghhjjf3880]

Brilliant !. Very nostalgic, great video.

[@chad0x]

This sounds like exactly what Im looking for.

[@Aomedmon]

Love this! Very much hoping for more.

[@OwenRymer]

Awesome keep them coming... Very interesting.

[@curtisvaughan8955]

Now that I've got the PHYSICAL book, let's finish this!

[@HappyCodingZX]

the series tailed off a little but I'm now doing regular coding tutorials on twitch at twitch.tv/happycodingzx

[@VideosViraisVirais-dc7nx]

The book needs a permission validation. If l dont get it until tomorrow, i ll download through "other ways"

[@Vazzible_gaming]

Ay man 8 bit 6502 is cheap + simple good for beginners 😂 lol if you’re considering any computer processors today.

[@allanbardon146]

3.5 minutes of blabber?
