Introduction to 6502 machine code
In essence, machine code programming is direct programming of he microprocessor without using a built-in high-level computer language such as BASIC. The vast increase in running speed obtained when writing programs in machine code is offset, to a degree, by the added complexity in writing them. However, it is not as difficult as one might think and this book tells the story.
The 6502 microprocessor is utilised in many popular home computers including the Election, BBC models A and B, VIC-20, ORIC-1/Atmos and the Atari machines. Also the Commodore 64 uses the 6510 which is a slightly modified but software compatible version of the 6592. Some simple demonstration programs which can be run on a number of the above machines are included in this book.
