# NASM ports of exercises from Programming from the Ground Up

**MOVED!** Hello, I am moving my repos to http://ratfactor.com/repos/

and setting them to read-only ("archived") on GitHub. Thank you, _-Dave_

The 2003 book _Programming from the Ground Up_ is an excellent primer

for 32-bit (i386) architecture assembly (and fundamental programming in

general). I've got a paper copy, but you can also read it for free

at archive.org:

https://archive.org/details/programming-from-the-ground-up

This repo contains my NASM translations of the programs. The `go.sh`

shell script assembles, links, and runs them (leave off the extension):

    # Exit

    #

    $ ./go.sh ch03.1_exit

    Exited with code: 0

    # Find largest value in array of doubles

    #

    $ ./go.sh ch03.2_maximum

    Exited with code: 222

    # Call a function to compute exponent

    #

    $ ./go.sh ch04.1_power_function

    Exited with code: 33

    # Call recursive function to compute factorial

    #

    $ ./go.sh ch04.2_factorial

    Exited with code: 24

Personal note: I like this book a lot, but I do not endorse the author

or his views outside of this one single subject.
