Use IBM on-line documentation Every other sentence in this book is in the passive voice and full of superfluous verbage. The information is often jumbled together without any consistent pattern of organization that I can discern. I found studying from this book to be difficult. The on-line IBM documentation on the 370 instruction set is much more concise, better written, and better organized. Of course, IBM can afford to hire professional technical writers. | ||
Great assembler book! This book was the reason I passed my assembler class with an A. I would recommend some prior knowledge of a higher-level language before using this book, but one doesn't have to be an advanced programmer to use it. | ||
This is the Koran of all things evil in "Computer Science" This book is a wonderful examination of the HISTORY of computing. Reading this will make anyone appreciate how much we've advanced since the days of hip huggers Richard Nixon. As for joshg comments, I am scared to think of how poor a program NIU must have judging by his writing skills. Does anyone teach 360/370 assembler anymore? | ||
This is the best book I have purchased in college! Overbeek, and Singletary ROCK! I am a college student at Northern Illinois University. As you might guess, my major is computer science. I purchased this book used for an assembler class 2 years ago, and have used it every semester since. It is written simply enough for the novus to understand, but contains information that established programmers need to refer too. PLEASE, Dont let this one go out of print! | ||
