Dragon 32 Programmer's Reference Guide by John Vander Reyden Pdf

First published in 1983, this easy-to-follow guide to the Dragon 32 gives users a complete overview of the acclaimed machine that many considered well ahead of its time. Though it was more powerful and quicker than many of its competitors, the Dragon 32 never gained the success of other 8-bit computers of the day such as the Commodore 64 or the ZX Spectrum. Despite this, the classic machine still retains a dedicated following to this day. Not only is this remastered version perfect for hobbyists and collectors, it is also a highly useful resource for those interested in programming retro games and utilities. As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: ***** A comprehensive overview of programming the Dragon 32, covering BASIC, machine language, sound and graphics. The Dragon 32 Programmer's Reference Guide will show you how to exercise the full potential of your Dragon 32, by taking you from simple BASIC routines right through to advanced machine language programs. The book fully examines BASIC and tells you everything you need to know to use every function to its maximum. Each facility is illustrated by example programs. Many professional hints and tips are included, demonstrating the full features of the Dragon 32, especially the graphics and sound potential. For the serious programmer, a memory map is included as well as 'monitor entry points' giving more information about the Dragon 32 than has ever been published anywhere else. This book will take you far beyond the realms of standard Dragon 32 programming. ***** Acorn Books is proud to present its Retro Reproductions series, a collection of classic computing works from the 80s and 90s given a new lease of life in the 21st century. From standards of programming reference no self-respecting microcomputer coder would be without, to obscure works unavailable for many years, these modern re-prints are perfect for any connoisseur of retro computing.

Dragon Machine Language For The Absolute Beginner by John Vander Reyden Pdf

First published in 1983, this easy-to-follow guide to using machine language on the Dragon 32 gave users an excellent insight into the acclaimed machine that many considered well ahead of its time. Though it was more powerful and quicker than many of its competitors, the Dragon 32 never gained the success of other 8-bit computers of the day such as the Commodore 64 or the ZX Spectrum. Despite this, the classic machine still retains a dedicated following to this day. Not only is this remastered version perfect for hobbyists and collectors, it is also a highly useful resource for those interested in programming retro games and utilities. * * * As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: Write faster, more powerful space saving programs for your Dragon. Written exclusively for Dragon users, Dragon Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner offers a complete instruction course in 6809 Machine Language, with particular reference to the Dragon 32. Even with no previous experience of computer languages, the easy-to-understand 'no jargon' format of this book will enable you to discover the power of the Dragon's own language. After introducing you to machine language and the 6809 instruction set, the book provides you with a series of short test programs which are designed to demonstrate all the Dragon's machine language instructions. These programs illustrate the use of the various instructions, their effects and actions, and will enable you to gain a practical understanding of machine language. You are encouraged to develop routines with all the instructions in order to become familiar with the 6809's instructions as well as gaining experience in writing short machine language routines. In addition to learning machine language, there are sample programs designed to demonstrate the power and potential of machine language in extracting the most from your Dragon. You will find that these programs contain routines that you can use when writing your own programs. In logical steps the book takes you through a comprehensive course in machine language, including understanding assembly language, designing and writing your own programs and a thorough grounding in the purpose and use of each of the instructions in the 6809 Instruction Set. * * * Acorn Books is proud to present its Retro Reproductions series, a collection of classic computing works from the 80s and 90s given a new lease of life in the 21st century. From standards of programming reference no self-respecting microcomputer coder would be without, to obscure works unavailable for many years, these modern re-prints are perfect for any connoisseur of retro computing.

20 Goto 10 by Steven Goodwin Pdf

A numerical adventure through the history of retro computers of the 1980s and 90s Do you know what secret messages were hidden in Commodore BASIC? Why the highest score possible in Pac-Man is 3333360? That Steve Wozniak set the price of the Apple computer at $666.66? Or why the Amstrad CPC 472 had an 8K chip that was never connected? From 0 to 2147483647, and from Acorn Atoms to VIC-20s, 20 GOTO 10 takes us on an adventure through the history of retro computers and games consoles – one number at a time. By following the ‘GOTO’ instructions at the end of each entry, you’ll create a unique journey through this treasure trove of forgotten geek lore and fascinating trivia. With any luck, you’ll discover the number used to grant infinite lives in Jet Set Willy on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, the reason a single digit might require seven bytes of memory, and how – through numbers – we can understand more than just the internal workings of our favourite retro machines.
