Programming on assembler X64. From the initial level to professional use of AVX. Yo van Guy

The purpose of this book is to show how the instructions of the Assembler language are used and to teach readers to program on it - from creating the simplest programs to the use of the extended system of the Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) commands. To study the practical part, knowledge of the basis of programming in a high-level language is required, for example, p.

Theoretical material is reduced to the necessary minimum: a little information about binary numbers, a brief description of logical operators and something about the basics of linear Algebra. The initial assembler code is presented in the form of completed programs that the reader can test on his computer and experiment with them. The tools that can be used are considered, and potential problems when using these tools.

The main part of the book contains information about the use of assembler in Linux OS; Several final chapters describe the work in Windows.

The book is intended for programmers in high -level languages, as well as for systemic engineers and security engineers working in the field of study of malicious software.
