Re: Neural Network on a PDP-11/70



I never used assembly on a Vax, but my understanding is that it was very close to the PDP-11/70 assembly, except it used 32 bits for most operations. I use VMS on Vax during my first job after college in 1987 / 1988. I found it difficult ('tho I liked file versioning). I learned 6502 assembly language (on an Apple II), but not 68000. A similar story to the PDP/Vax: my understanding was that 68000 was mostly based on 6502, but many of its operations were 16-bit instead of 8-bit. At the time, I was very happy that C was ported to virtually all known architectures so I could avoid learning such things. ð
