Why RPN Calculators Perfectly Explain Assembly Language Control

Assembly Arithmetic Algorithms-Linux by Chastity White Rose

Personally, I think that the Assembly system of conditional jumps makes a lot of sense. Other programming languages such as BASIC and C have "goto" statements that work like this. For example, `if(eax<ebx){goto less;}`. Modern programming languages tend to discourage the use of goto or not allow it at all. However, these languages still use jumps I have described in this section because it is required by the hardware. Both "if" and "while" statements are written by using the conditional jump statements most relevant to what you are trying to do. The only thing I have found difficult about jumps in assembly is remembering which acronym means which condition. However, since I created the chart in this chapter, now I can refer to it, and you can too! As long as I keep these six main types of conditions in my head and am working with unsigned numbers, I can write almost any assembly program from scratch.
