Ask HN: Best book(s) to learn Assembly as a first language
I want to start with ASM to learn how a computer works and to learn other languages more easily. What are the best books for a complete beginner who want to "master" assembly (maybe not that much but you get the idea) and how a computer works ? I won't use ASM professionally so any ASM language should be fine (except if it uses AT&T syntax).

Ps : I know it's a bit overkill and it won't help me find a job.

Do you have a spare RPi (or other Arm SBC) at hand? Spend an afternoon at https://armasm.com/

Though I don't think ASM will help you learning other languages, it could be an interesting couple of hours.
