Inhaltsangabe

This book is designed to be your comprehensive guide to learning RISC-V assembly programming by example. Whether you are a novice programmer stepping into the world of assembly language for the first time or an experienced developer looking to expand your skills into the RISC-V architecture, this book provides a thorough, hands-on approach to mastering this versatile instruction set.
RISC-V (Reduced Instruction Set Computer - V) is an open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) that has been gaining significant traction in both academic and industrial circles. Its simplicity, modularity, and extensibility make it an ideal platform for education, research, and a wide range of applications. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V is free and open, allowing anyone to study, modify, and implement it, fostering innovation and collaboration across the global computing community.
In all examples from this book, we use RV32 which is a 32-bit subset of the RISC-V architecture, designed for applications that require 32-bit addressing and operations.
Why Assembly Language?
Assembly language provides a clear view of what is happening at the hardware level, giving you ultimate control over your program’s execution. By learning assembly, you gain insight into how high-level languages are translated into machine code, enabling you to write more efficient and optimized code. Additionally, understanding assembly language is essential for tasks such as debugging, performance tuning, and developing system-level software.
Programming is best learned by doing, and this book is designed with that philosophy in mind. Each chapter contains numerous code examples with detailed explanations accompany each example to ensure you understand the underlying concepts and techniques.
This book assumes a basic understanding of computer programming and familiarity with fundamental concepts such as variables, loops, and functions. Prior experience with a high-level programming language like C or Python will be beneficial but is not strictly necessary.
