Book excerpt: First published in 1985, this user-friendly guide to coding machine language on the Atari 130XE helped many owners of the much-loved home computer achieve programming feats well beyond the limits of BASIC. Based on the MOS Technology 6502 CPU running at 1.79 MHz, the 130XE was one of Atari’s famed 8-bit range - in fact the first home computer series to be designed with custom co-processor chips. * * * As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: Go beyond the limitations of BASIC and write faster, more powerful space-saving programs using this guide compiled exclusively for Atari 130XE users. Atari 130XE Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner offers complete instruction in 6502 machine language. Each chapter includes specific examples of machine language applications which can be demonstrated and used on your own Atari 130XE. Even without any previous experience in computer languages the easy-to-understand ‘no jargon’ format of this book will make the art of machine language programming entirely accessible. Atari 130XE Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner is the perfect book for anyone interested in discovering the power and potential of the Atari’s native language. * * * Acorn Books is proud to present its Retro Reproduction Series, a collection of classic computing works from the 1980s and 90s, lovingly reproduced in the 21st century. From standards of programming reference no self-respecting microcomputer programmer would be without, to obscure works not found in print anywhere else, these modern reprints are perfect for any connoisseur of retro computing.

Book excerpt: First published in 1985, this book enabled a whole new generation to learn game coding on their Atari 130XE - one of Atari's acclaimed 8-bit home computers. The XE had two joysticks rather than the four of its sibling models, however it did come with a full 128kb of bank-switched RAM. Although it was not as successful in America as the Commodore 64 - or the ZX Spectrum in Europe - the machine retains a large fanbase to this day. As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: * * * * Turn your Atari into an exciting arcade of electronic fun and thrills with the easy-to-enter ready-made programs in this book. Containing 30 different games designed to demonstrate the complete capabilities of the Atari 130XE - arcade games, strategy games and adventures are all here for you to enjoy - without the need for any complex programming skills! Each game includes a screen photo, to illustrate exactly what the program will look like, and the unique CHEXSUM facility, to avoid those costly typing errors. For the benefit of more advanced programmers, there is a full outline of what each program is doing, enabling you to modify the games to suit your own specifications. Now the best games book is available for the Atari 130XE opening the door to a fascinating new dimension of computer games, action and excitement. * * * * Acorn Books is proud to present its Retro Reproductions series, a collection of classic computing works from the 1980s and 90s, lovingly reproduced in the 21st century.

Download or read book Coding Freedom written by E. Gabriella Coleman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are computer hackers? What is free software? And what does the emergence of a community dedicated to the production of free and open source software--and to hacking as a technical, aesthetic, and moral project--reveal about the values of contemporary liberalism? Exploring the rise and political significance of the free and open source software (F/OSS) movement in the United States and Europe, Coding Freedom details the ethics behind hackers' devotion to F/OSS, the social codes that guide its production, and the political struggles through which hackers question the scope and direction of copyright and patent law. In telling the story of the F/OSS movement, the book unfolds a broader narrative involving computing, the politics of access, and intellectual property. E. Gabriella Coleman tracks the ways in which hackers collaborate and examines passionate manifestos, hacker humor, free software project governance, and festive hacker conferences. Looking at the ways that hackers sustain their productive freedom, Coleman shows that these activists, driven by a commitment to their work, reformulate key ideals including free speech, transparency, and meritocracy, and refuse restrictive intellectual protections. Coleman demonstrates how hacking, so often marginalized or misunderstood, sheds light on the continuing relevance of liberalism in online collaboration.

Download or read book Sketching User Experiences Getting the Design Right and the Right Design written by Bill Buxton and published by Morgan Kaufmann. This book was released on 2010-07-28 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sketching User Experiences approaches design and design thinking as something distinct that needs to be better understood—by both designers and the people with whom they need to work— in order to achieve success with new products and systems. So while the focus is on design, the approach is holistic. Hence, the book speaks to designers, usability specialists, the HCI community, product managers, and business executives. There is an emphasis on balancing the back-end concern with usability and engineering excellence (getting the design right) with an up-front investment in sketching and ideation (getting the right design). Overall, the objective is to build the notion of informed design: molding emerging technology into a form that serves our society and reflects its values. Grounded in both practice and scientific research, Bill Buxton's engaging work aims to spark the imagination while encouraging the use of new techniques, breathing new life into user experience design. - Covers sketching and early prototyping design methods suitable for dynamic product capabilities: cell phones that communicate with each other and other embedded systems, "smart" appliances, and things you only imagine in your dreams - Thorough coverage of the design sketching method which helps easily build experience prototypes—without the effort of engineering prototypes which are difficult to abandon - Reaches out to a range of designers, including user interface designers, industrial designers, software engineers, usability engineers, product managers, and others - Full of case studies, examples, exercises, and projects, and access to video clips that demonstrate the principles and methods
