I posted the exercises in http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~sergey/cs59/x86/exercises.txt They have a strong focus on accessing variables for a reason---we'll see this next week when we discuss scoping in scripting and functional languages. Sample programs for the exercises are in http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~sergey/cs59/x86/ex/ Additionally, all previous class list mailing are in mailings/ We may use the X-hour on Wednesday to help you set up command-line tools and get used to them.
