The first two chapters

Chapter one is a general introduction. Talks about the different kinds of programming languages (high level and low level). Also talks about the tool-set required to test the programs given in the book.

Chapter 2 is also fairly basic. Talks about the computer architecture (in layman's terms). Also talks about the various ways a computer can access the memory.
  • immediate
  • register
  • direct
  • indexed
  • indirect
  • pointer -- a combination of indirect and indexed.
