Are you looking for Assembler for Applications Programming or for
Systems Programming? Even if you want to move into Systems Programming
code, starting with easier Applications Programming code might be a good
idea.
When I moved from Cobol to Assembler, I used:
"370/390 Assembler Language Programming" by Stern, Sager & Stern.

There is a newer version and several used copies are available at less
than $5
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0471886572/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&qid=1331931707&sr=8-1-fkmr0&condition=used

You should grab a copy even if you already know some of the basics of
how the mainframe works. At that price, how can you go wrong.

Hi All,

Thanks all for the quick response.

Yes,I am planning for individual study,and yes,I have a test system in our
environment where I have sufficient auth to write and execute the code.
I have gone through the SHARE assembler presentations and looking for some
pointers to continue on the same lines.

Thanks
Sudheen

If you can get

Advanced Assembler Language and MVS Interfaces

I disagree with that. The OP is a newbie, so I
don't think jumping in to Advanced Assembler is
viable.

Of course, we have classes to offer, but I gather
the poster is more into individual study.

And it is not clear if Sudheen has access to a
system to write and test code on.

How about more information, Sudheen?

Hi All,

I am new to assembler on z/OS.I have tried to google for a starting
point to
learn assembler,but unfortunately I am not able to get one.Only thing
that I
keep hitting are some user/reference guides and some presentations.

Could I request you to provide me some pointers to docs which are good
starting point for me.

Thanks in advance
Sudheen
