Reading list for Assembly

I am sitting here trying to create FIFO buffers for an RS-232 port on an SX-28.

While it is a wonderfully create process to DIY, I am beginning to wonder if I should have a better library.

I have seen a text called, The Art of Programming and wonder if it is at all as good The Art of Electronics.· Also, I wonder if there is a classic algorythm 'bible' that provides you will options and explanations in a practical sense.

While Parallax works very hard to publish supporting material, I am sure there are titles with broader overview·that come to mind and should be mentioned.

    Did you see the FIFO code in my book - there may be better implementations that this, but it works.

    I've done two projects that use buffered serial receive in SX/B -- here are the links the the N&V articles:

    Are you referring to The Art of Programming, the three volume set. If so, that is a book that deals primarily with assembly language; looking at the table of contents, I did not get the feel that it could be used for a·better understanding of SX programming. I believe the set of books is for people that are into the PC side of things.

    Kramer,

    My I suggest that you may be worrying unnecessarily. Even if you do reinvent a wheel or two, you'll understand that wheel and will be better for the process. Just a thought.
