Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss writing programs using the assembly instructions for the simple processor introduced in the previous chapter. The principles common to all programming languages are discussed, such as the structuring of assembly code and how data structures can be manipulated. The focus, however, is on how higher-level features, e.g. data structures, procedure calls and multithreading, can be realized using assembly language.
