*As the original publisher Melbourne House wrote: This book will enable the user to learn machine language the easy way - no computer jargon. A straightforward approach with many examples.

Complied exclusively for Commodore 64 users, COMMODORE 64 MACHINE LANGUAGE FOR THE ABSOLUTE BEGINNER offers complete instruction in 6502 machine language.

If you are frustrated by the limitations of BASIC and want to write faster, more powerful, space-saving programs or subroutines, then this book is for you.

Even with no previous experience of computer languages, the easy-to-understand 'no jargon' format of this book will enable you to discover the power of the Commodore 64's own language.

Each chapter includes specific examples of machine language applications that can be demonstrated and used on your own Commodore 64.

Includes an assembly language programming aid program which allows you to enter machine language programs with immediate confirmation of correct instruction.

This book gives you everything you need to write machine language programs for your Commodore 64.
