Student Text A Programmer's Introduction to the IBM System/360 Architecture, Instructions, and Assembler Language Preface This text is intended to introduce to the student the characteristics of System/360 and its instruction set. Many sample programs are 'used to illustrate specific instructions and programming techniques. It is ex- pected that the student has some knowledge of com- puting systems. The following IBM System/360 Student Texts have been incorporated in this publication; however, the individual books are not obsoleted by this version: Fixed-:Point Operations (C20-1613) Programming with Base Registers and the USING Instruction (C20-1614) Introduction to Assembly Language Programming (C20-1615) Decimal Operations (C20-1616) Number Systems (C20-1618) 0 Logical Operations on Characters and Bits (C20-1623) Edit~ Translate and Execute Instructions (C20-1624) Subroutines and Subprograms (C20-1625) Th~ new material in this text includes the chapters on "Architecture," "Floating Point and Advanced Loops in Scientific Applications," and "Automatic Interrupts." No attempt at completeness has been made and, therefore, it is expected that the student will refer to the appropriate Systems Reference Library ( SRL) publications for additional detail.
