Assembler is, by much, the most complicated thing to >understand if you're not familiar with. I believe that the meaning of the commands is enough to understand small codes when some of them are of 5 assembler commands.

In this case I know that a register is a space in the memory when the computer can be faster in this space. I think that getting the information about every command and the time of it(in clock cycles) can help me to understand what is going on 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. I did not think about writing in assembler but only about understanding it and I do not believe that understanding a few lines of assembler is an hard task. Uri
