Assembly x64 Programming in easy steps shows readers how to write code to create their own computer programs. It contains separate chapters demonstrating how to store and manipulate data in 64-bit registers, how to control program flow, and how to create reusable blocks of code in program functions. It includes demonstrations of parallel processing with 128-bit Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) and 256-bit Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX).

Assembly x64 Programming in easy steps has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to anyone who wants to begin programming in modern x64 Assembly language on Windows. The code in the listed steps within the book is colour-coded, making it easier for beginners to grasp. There are complete step-by-step example programs that demonstrate each aspect of coding, together with screenshots that illustrate the actual output when each program is executed.

Mike McGrath gained his extensive knowledge of computer languages while working as a developer contracting to companies around the world. Mike is an established In Easy Steps author with several guides to his credit

  • Assembly is a low-level programming language that provides symbols that directly correspond to machine code instructions. High-level languages such as C++ rely upon a compiler to generate similar instructions, but programming directly in the Assembly language can allow a program to execute instructions much faster. Assembly language instructions are specific to a particular computer architecture.
  • This book demonstrates modern x64 Assembly programming on the Windows operating system with the Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) that is included with the free Visual Studio Community Edition integrated development environment.
  • Includes free, downloadable source code that readers can check and compare with their own work.
