Note that TI calculators do not run x86 assembly, if that is what you're trying to do.


Of course I understand TI calculators don’t run x86 assembly! That’s not what I want to do — I just want to get a better understanding of assembly, preferably x86 so I can run it on my own Windows computer. (I don’t even have a TI calculator.)


Ha, just making sure :P I do have one suggestion, though: try WSL, because it will give you access to Linux, where you can actually write programs entirely in assembly because the system call API is stable. The ABI matches with macOS's too, which is another plus.


I already have WSL installed, so maybe I will give this a try if I get time.

I didn’t know this — is it not stable on Windows?
