Assembler is, by much, the most complicated thing to understand if you're not familiar with. I mean that, for example, knowing that "mov" copies a something into something (for example, number into a register) does not mean anything if you don't know what's that register used for. I'm not an assembler expert, I'm familiar with it, but still find it too complicated to give it a try, at least for the moment. BTW, you can check the assembler output window in your C compiler to see how it traduces C into assembler... could be useful. José C.
