Book Machine Language Programming Made Simple for your Sinclair   Timex TS1000

Download or read book Machine Language Programming Made Simple for your Sinclair Timex TS1000 written by Beam Software and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Launched in 1981, Sir Clive Sinclair's ZX81 - successor to his ZX80 released the year before - was designed to be a low-cost introduction to home computing for the general public. It was a hugely successful machine, with over one and a half million 'official' units being sold; many more unauthorised 'clones' were also produced, particularly in Russia and other Eastern Bloc countries of the era. One could either purchase the machine pre-built, or - as a significant number of consumers did - buy it in kit form for assembly at home at a slightly cheaper price. This 'DIY' approach, encouraged by Sinclair Research, became a core element of the computer's genetic make-up. Those who were comfortable putting together the four silicon chips and other such components were just as keen to poke around the machine's memory, learning as much as they could about its capability; the programs they would write could easily be shared once saved onto a standard audio cassette. This is one of the earliest published books addressing the subject of programming the first generation of home computers. First released in 1981 by Melbourne House it helped owners of the ZX80, ZX81 (and later the Timex TS1000) learn how to make the most of their machine, commanding the CPU directly rather than through a BASIC interpreter - an abstraction level that slowed things down considerably. This book was an entry point into advanced computer use; many who would go on to have long careers in the technology world owe their start to the tutorials and explanations featured within. As such it is an important part of computer history and remains useful for anyone interested in retro programming, particularly on the early Sinclair machines. * * * 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 user would want to be without, to obscure works not found in print anywhere else, these modern reprints are perfect for any connoisseur of retro computing.

Book excerpt: Launched in 1981, Sir Clive Sinclair's ZX81 - successor to his ZX80 released the year before - was designed to be a low-cost introduction to home computing for the general public. It was a hugely successful machine, with over one and a half million 'official' units being sold; many more unauthorised 'clones' were also produced, particularly in Russia and other Eastern Bloc countries of the era. One could either purchase the machine pre-built, or - as a significant number of consumers did - buy it in kit form for assembly at home at a slightly cheaper price. This 'DIY' approach, encouraged by Sinclair Research, became a core element of the computer's genetic make-up. Those who were comfortable putting together the four silicon chips and other such components were just as keen to poke around the machine's memory, learning as much as they could about its capability; the programs they would write could easily be shared once saved onto a standard audio cassette. It became common for magazines - both from major publishers and their smaller, fan-produced brethren - to feature listings of programs for the home user to type in themselves. This book features thirty such programs, covering everything from card games and shoot 'em ups to utilities and educational software. The 'Not Only' in the title refers to the fact that in addition to the code listings themselves, the book provides the reader with additional programming hints, advanced space-saving techniques (remember, the ZX81 only had one kilobyte of memory!) and general coding advice to up-skill anyone interested in doing so. This 40th anniversary reproduction is the first time this hugely influential and popular book has been printed in decades. Available in paperback form like the original, or a collector's hardback edition, it is the ideal purchase or gift for any fan of the early days of home computing.

Book Spectrum Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner

Download or read book Spectrum Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner written by William Tang and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, William Tang’s Spectrum Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner is generally considered to be the best introduction to 8-bit machine code programming ever written. With many great game writers crediting this as the book that got them started, there still is no better way to learn the language at the heart of the ZX Spectrum. * * * As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: If you are frustrated by the limitations of BASIC and want to write faster, more powerful, space-saving programs or subroutines, Spectrum Machine Language for the Absolute Beginner is the book for you. Even with no previous experience of computer languages, you will be able to discover the ease and power of the Spectrum's own language. Each chapter includes specific examples of machine language applications which can be demonstrated and used on your Spectrum as well as a self-test questionnaire. At the end of the book, all this is brought together in an entire machine language program - from design right through to the complete listing of an exciting, original arcade game. * * * 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 The Complete Sinclair ZX81 Basic Course

Download or read book The Complete Sinclair ZX81 Basic Course written by Beam Software and published by Retro Reproductions. This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the collector's hardback edition of The Complete Sinclair ZX81 Basic Course. The ZX80 home computer was launched in 1980 by the then still-to-be-knighted home computer mogul Clive Sinclair. Available in kit form at £79.99 for the aspiring hobbyist or pre-built at a price of £99.99 the ground-breaking machine offered home computing for the kind of money an average family could afford. The inventor's company would grow to become Sinclair Research and release even more powerful machines such as the ZX81 (about which this book focuses), QL and what would at the time be the UK's best-selling computer, the ZX Spectrum. This course - originally published in 1981 by Melbourne House - helped the reader master the intricacies of programming in BASIC on their ZX81 machine; often this was the first time they would ever experience coding. The course not only became a foundation for many who would then go on to have careers in the information technology field, but also is a useful reference work to this day for those interested in the very earliest affordable home computers. * * * As the original publisher Melbourne House stated: The Complete Basic Course is a 240-page in-depth comprehensive text for complete beginners and experienced programmers. Over 100 programs and examples illustrate the use and possibilities of the Sinclair ZX81. This is an invaluable reference guide for all ZX81 owners. * * * 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.
