just getting started

Hello everyone.

I'm not very good with introductions but here's me introducing myself:
I'm about 26 :) and I've been working in c++ for some time now and i just got this feeling that i want to learn assembly ( not an entirely unexplained feeling since i think that by getting to know assembly and the hardware architecture on some level, you will gain a much deeper understanding of programming ).

While i have a basic understanding of assembly in general i still have a lot to learn when it comes to the layout of the executable itself, calling conventions, data / code segments, etc. This is one of the reasons that until now I've been stuck on using inline assembly in VS here and there.

So i guess I'll be back with a post shortly

PS:  any links, references to tutorial or books are welcome :)

Well a hearty welcome to you. You should start by looking over Iczelion's tutorials, they are available at the forum website. I also like MadWizard's tutorial
