ARM 64-Bit Assembly Language carefully explains the concepts of assembly language programming, slowly building from simple examples towards complex programming on bare-metal embedded systems. Considerable emphasis is put on showing how to develop good, structured assembly code. More advanced topics such as fixed and floating point mathematics, optimization and the ARM VFP and NEON extensions are also covered. This book will help readers understand representations of, and arithmetic operations on, integral and real numbers in any base, giving them a basic understanding of processor architectures, instruction sets, and more.

This resource provides an ideal introduction to the principles of 64-bit ARM assembly programming for both the professional engineer and computer engineering student, as well as the dedicated hobbyist with a 64-bit ARM-based computer.

4 stars

It is a good book. Other than assembly it explains computer architecture, touches Linux and explains conventions about programming and standards about encoding. There are lots of examples. Often the assembly implementation of a program goes in parallel with a C implementation of it. In explaining each instruction it gives a description using pseudocode, which I found very clear.

The topic I found most interesting learning was structured programming, because it made assembly usable like any other language.
