The ASM Rosetta Stone

This respository contains the ASM Rosetta Stone, a small snippet of C that you can use to learn a new assembly variant in a short amount of time.

Getting Started

To get started with studying assembly languages using Rosetta Stone, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository: Open a terminal and run the following command to clone the repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/lowlevellearning/rosetta-stone.git

1. Install necessary packages: Install the necessary packages on your system by running the following command:

./setup.sh

1. Makefile usage: You can use the Makefile to compile the rosetta.c file into executables for different architectures. Run the following command to compile the code for all supported architectures (powerpc, arm, aarch64):

make all

Alternatively, you can compile the code for individual architectures using the respective target names:

• PowerPC:

make powerpc

• ARM

make arm

• AArch64

make aarch64

The compiled executables will be named ppc (for powerpc), arm (for arm), and aarch64 (for aarch64).
