plz suggest something for learning assembly language

**marc_kriss** · 08-09-2012, 10:39 PM

Hello G4H. I am in need of study material on assembly language. I am starting from scratch (basically i know C,C++, but never learnt Assembly). I have found some E-books, tried some tutorials on You-Tube. But nothing gives a complete picture. And I am finding it very difficult to cope up with the Assembly Primer series videos- by Vivek Ramachandran, becoz i have not collected complete understanding of Assembly and i trying to catch up with buffer overflow tutorials. I am lacking in 32-bit Assembly coding in Linux and GDB usage. This is where i get stuck. So can anyone plz suggest me a complete & short tutorial or book on Assembly and GDB? Thanks in advance...

This is not very often that people say that they are finding it difficult to cope with Vivek Ramachandran videos. They are so detailed.

Maybe your C/C++ background is hampering you from learning fast. Happens all of the time as people find it difficult to migrate.
Also, assembly requires patience. You have to read and read a lot. Try taking a break and then starting it again.

Begin with GDB from the book Beginning Linux Programming, Chapter 10, Debugging with gdb >>
Beginning Linux Programming - Neil Matthew, Richard Stones - Google Books

Maybe switch now to Vivek Ramachandran videos again.
Here are some of the links (you probably would have tried them already) >> Open Directory - Computers: Programming: Languages: Assembly: x86: FAQs, Help, and Tutorials

Thanks alot ABHAY...couldn't reply soon (was busy for 2 days). Also want to share a book for everyone's info (heard about it in IRC). It is a very detailed & basic book, nicely explained:- "Programming from the Ground Up by Jonathan Bartlett". It is freely available. A great book for beginners. & Again thanks abhay...

That's exactly what I suggested in this thread - How Shall I learn Exploitation Techniques?
