 		 #183881 - Learning Assembler First
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I have always been a strong proponent of the idea to know the assembler language first before getting embedded with C language.

That said however I can comment that once one has made that full investment - assembler to C for one particular platform I can see no reason to impose that linearization upon oneself as you move to other platforms. Once you are conversant in C it is reasonable to come to the new platform and learn its assembly language in parallel with using a C language.

Some one else here had commented that some platforms with lots of registers can actually be hard to work with in assembler language trying to keep track of what is in all the registers. I know I had that problem working with the AVR and 68K type parts in the past in assembler even though both have very nice to work with instruction sets.
