    Sitting in assembly

    For the love of god avoid assembly language...learn it on your own..its not that hard and the classes are so dry and boring.

    It's a requirement at most schools, though it is boring. It took an entire semester to learn how to output to a screen using the ARM assembler. At least you get to understand what hardware terms really mean. For example, I knew that DMA allowed faster data transfer between components, but know I know how it's handled by the CPU. Also insteresting to learn about how interrupts are handled and how the platforms differ.

    I took Assembler a year ago, damn it was soooo boring, and I honestly gotta say I didnt learned much, I still dont know how I passed that class

    Altough its true, it's amazing finding out about all the interruptions and how it all works on the lower levels of programming
