  1. I learnt assembly by inlining it into a C program for graphics performance. This was when MS-DOS games still were a thing and whilst the graphics performance purpose isn't relevant today.. inlining it in C is a great entry way to learn the basics without having to write an entire 'hello world' program in ASM or even have an assembler compiler. Especially if you're running Linux or MacOSX today. Doom and doom 2 used inlining, for graphics perf 😊
