ASSEMBLY

I've decided I'd like to try and learn assembly in my spare time.

But I want to know how hard it would be compared to learning C.

And also if you know assembly, how long did it take you to learn and how often do you end up using it?

Not really sure how threads like these go down on /prog/ but I figured here is the best place to ask at least.

Each register name is really an acronym. This is true even for the "alphabetical" registers EAX, EBX, ECX, and EDX. The following list shows the register names and their meanings:

    * EAX - Accumulator Register
    * EBX - Base Register
    * ECX - Counter Register
    * EDX - Data Register
    * ESI - Source Index
    * EDI - Destination Index
    * EBP - Base Pointer
    * ESP - Stack Pointer
