Course Request: 6502 Assembly

Question

I would like to see a course for 6502 8-bit ASM - - kind of like the easy6502 example online but more in depth - - to improve the fundamental understanding of data, structure, memory size / management, as well as control flow.

Then perhaps people will better realize that higher level languages build upon these concepts with ever increasing abstraction.

Would anyone else be interested in such a course?

Answer 2

Sounds interesting but unprofitable, so don't expect to see it happen. Anyway, suggestions don't really belong here, submit this idea as actual feedback to the team instead.

Answer 3

It could cover aspects of the following:

Base Number Systems
Positional Notation
Binary to Decimal to Hexadecimal conversion
Labels
Instructions
OpCodes
Memory Addresses
Memory Pages (Zero Page for example)
The Stack
Low byte / High byte
Big Endian / Little Endian
Bit Flags
Bitwise Operations
Two’s Complement
Data Compression
CPU Cycles*
etc…

- - - - - - - - - -
*some instructions require multiple cycles to complete the task; hence, speed differences in execution times
