Chapter 2--Instructions: Language of the Computer
This chapter goes into far more detail about the ARM instruction set than we need for CS 251. The following three sections are the more relevant sections for Weeks 1,2 of the course; some of these and other sections will be relevant to later weeks of the course.
- 2.2 Operations of the Computer: an general overview of ARM instructions.
- 2.3 Operands of the Computer Hardware: a discussion of the operands of the instructions.
- 2.7 Instructions Making Decisions: this section talks about branching.
