The next edition of the popular book "Programming from the Ground Up"
- Programming Under the Hood
This project has been discontinued. Originally, I set out to update Programming from the Ground Up. However, the move to 64-bit is actually a pretty huge rewrite. In any case, I decided to just go ahead and do the rewrite.
The result is a new book, Learn to Program with Assembly.
This book not only updates to modern systems and 64-bit assembly, it surpasses the old book in many ways.
For instance, I cover many additional higher-level language features and how they are could be implemented from an assembly language perspective.
This includes:
- Object-oriented programming
- Exception handling
- Garbage collection
- etc.
While the original book had a working malloc implementation, this one goes further.
It still has a malloc implementation, but it also adds on a pool-based allocator implementation, as well as a functioning garbage collector implementation.
Anyway, I hope you check it out. The link is below:

If you want to go to an even lower level, you might enjoy my Electronics for Beginners book:
Anyway, thank you all for your encouragement. I hope you enjoy the books! If you want to see what else I'm up to, you can check out my academia page:
