Some assembly required : Assembly language programming with the AVR Microcontroller

Abstract

The study of assembly language should not be undertaken with the goal of simply learning another programming language. Instead, this should be seen as laying a solid foundation to support the programming knowledge and skills already acquired. Studying assembly language will make you more aware of how computer systems work and how high-level language programming is used to control them. Knowledge about the details of a specific processor gained through the study of assembly language programming will ultimately make you a better computer practitioner.
