So damn new to this, need some stuff to start me off in dev

Post by CKY-2K/Clay Man »

Is there any documents or anything available for me to learn more about the functions and operations in assembly coding?

I've looked at the SMB asm but I'm not 100% getting a full understanding of how things work.

So is there stuff that tells me like what, "ldy, bne, lda" and other stuff means?

If I knew what these things ment I probably could catch on easily.

Learning from a disassembly is kinda confusing. Having some original source with the labels and comments from the author is a much better idea.

Here's a pretty good and brief tutorial:

Thanks guys. hopefully in time I'll be able to understand better about how to program properly and understand more about the language of this stuff.
