I’ve had the idea to try and learn how to Program 6502 Assembly for my Commodore PET, but I’m a little lost on what the best source is on learning this stuff, especially for a beginner who is yet unfamiliar with its full Architecture and Quirks!
Thus far I’ve tried looking at Books from the PETs Period, but those do expect quite a bit of pre-knowledge in Computing, which for me includes a tiny bit of Python and Commodore Basic…
Edit: Thank you all for Commenting! I’ll try out the many Ideas you all had soon and see what works best with me! Thank you all for the Suggestions!
If you have little to no experience with programming at all, I suggest trying the assembly game TIS-100 first to wrap your head around the concepts, rather than trying to learn 6502 right away.
I would pair it with this tutorial, which is really just a bottom-up programming course.
Python is very different from assembly, but assembly isn’t hard to learn if you apply yourself and take it slow. It will seem kind of abstract without something like the game above to challenge your understanding.
