A86: Re: Looking for z80 Programming Book




The book that I will recommend is "Z80 Assembly Language Subroutines". It
has some beginning intro to ASM (even though it doesn't sound like it), a
discussion of the Z80, and then quite a few Z80 routines, some useful and
some not. If I'd learned from a book, that is the book I would recommend. I
don't know if it is in print or not, but most libraries have a copy (my
library has 2 copies).
