+— No Computer jargon. A straight forward approach with many examples.
-Memory Map, Windows
+Compiled exclusively tor Amstrad users, AMSTRAD MACHINE LANGUAGE FOR THE ABSOLUTE BEGINNER offers complete instructions in Z80 machine language programming.
-Input/Output Map, Matrix data
+If you are frustrated by the limitations of BASIC and want to write faster, more powerful, space-saving programs or subroutines, then this book is tor you.
-Outer Peripherals, Text output
+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 Amstrad‘s own language.
-Jumpblock Entries, Graphics VDU
+Each Chapter includes specific examples of machine language appliCations which can be demonstrated and used on your own Amstrad. The features and capabilities of the Amstrad are all covered, so you can start programming straight away.
