Hi Bobby,

to read tutorials is not a funny job for beginners.

What you need is some hardware and software to practice.
The easier way was to buy a development board with the micro and some switches, LEDs ... on it. Often there is an assembler, download software and code examples included. I think you can get such a board for 100$ or so.

Or you are experienced on soldering and go the cheaper, but stony way and build your own board. Some microcontrollers, e.g. DS5000, or AT89S8252 make it easy, since they can be programmed on board.

If you have the development board, start simple: light a LED, flash a LED, switch the LED with a key, ... use timers, use UARTs, use arithmetics, use interrupts.

And if you can program interrupts finally, you have had many fun meanwhile.
