Great presentation! Thank you for explaining the vocabulary as you went, and more importantly to me: *where* that vocabulary comes from. I often find that when I’m learning, “oh this is that”is a common way to say what something is, but to let me truly absorb information I need to know a bit of *why* something is something else. I saw/heard the explanation of what a qword was and immediately thought “OH THAT MAKES SENSE!!” instead of what _usually_ happens which is “I know what a word is but…?” Now I know! Byte = 8 bits word = 16 bits double (dword) = 32 bits quad (qword) = 64 bits I’ll likely be sharing this with anyone interested in assembly. Thanks again!
Excellent presentation! Thanks for sharing.
