ARM7TDMI program that computes polynomial

Let's write a program in ARM assembly language that computes the value of a polynomial. A polynomial of degree 2 is an expression of the form a*x**2 + b*x + c, where a, b, and c are constants and x is an input parameter.

Generate testing data using Python

In a previous article, I talked about generating random data using Python. Let's try to use this capability for a practical purpose: to generate testing data for another program.

Generating random data using Python

The Python standard library's random module has a randrange function which generates random integers in a range.

Learning about ARM architecture using ARMSim#

ARMSim# is a desktop application which simulates the operation of an ARM-based system. It was designed as an educational tool, so for the purpose of learning about how the ARM architecture works, it may be a good choice.

Study strategy for programming books

What is the best way to study a programming book?

In order to improve my programming skills, I am reading and reviewing some programming books and am trying to find a good method of working through the material. So far I think I am settling on a multi-pass approach, where each pass or "phase" emphasizes a different activity.
