Anyone know a good book I can give a newbie to teach him Assembler??


Information about non-IBM Courses would also useful - (we are contacting
IBM to chase up their offerings, of course).

Note, we are in the UK

Andy,

Of course, I would be delighted to come over and teach
your newbie. But for one person I suspect it would not
be cost-effective.

We have developed a program we call Remote Contact
Training (or, of course, RCT) for just such small
training needs. Basically, we supply the student with
our standard course handout and work with a techincal
contact to set up your system to run the labs. Then
the student goes through the material at their own
pace and is connected to the course author by email
for answering questions, providing hints, evaluating
student solutions, and so on.

Surprisingly, Assembler has been our most frequently
requested RCT topic. Take a look at our website for
more information.

Home page:
http://www.trainersfriend.com/

Assembler courses available:
http://www.trainersfriend.com/Assembler_%20courses/assemcurric.htm

Information on RCT:
http://www.trainersfriend.com/Policies/RCT_OverView.htm

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

-Steve Comstock,

Looks good to me.   No promises but if I can persuade the PHB we may just
buy it :-)

Andy,

If you want to do self teaching, on AMAZON the following books are ones I
used over 20 years ago.  For basic Assembler Instruction they are all
decent.  The one everyone drools over now is out of print and apparently
very pricey.

The following books appear to be available with a 1-2 day ship.  Not sure if
that is true or not.

MVS Assembler Language (Paperback) by Kevin McQuillen, Anne Prince

Assembler Language Programming: The IBM System/370 Family
(Hardcover) 
by George Struble  (my fav)

A Simplified Approach to S/370 Assembly Language Programming 
by Barbara J. Burian 

I have not checked out this book but it is current on Amazon.
Assembler Language Programming for IBMR and IBMR Compatible
Computers   [Formerly 370/360 Assembler Language Programming] (Formerly
370/360,Assembler Language Programming) (Paperback)
by Nancy Stern, Alden Sager, Robert A. Stern

The DROOL Book - Out of Print
Advanced Assembler Language and MVS Interfaces for IBM Systems and
Application Programmers (Wiley professional computing) 
by Carmine A. Cannatello  

Also, another good book for learning this is:
  Systems Programming (McGraw-Hill computer science series) 
by John J. Donovan 

Another option would be to cruise past several universities and see if any
of them offer Mainframe Assembler Programming and check to see what books
they use.  Might be more accessible.

Hope this helps.
