This book focuses on teaching the art of programming in assembly language, using the RISC-V ISA as the guiding example. Towards this goal, the text spans, at an introductory level, the organization of computing systems, describes the mechanics of how programs are created and introduces basic programming concepts including both user level and system programming. The ability to read and write code in low-level assembly language is a powerful skill to be able to create high performance programs, and to access features of the machine that are not easily accessible from high-level languages such as C, Java or Python, for example to control peripheral devices.
