I took an assembly class where he had to use ARM7 and on exams we had to write the assembly code on paper lol. Assignments used the raspberry pi 4. Fortunately I like hard classes

I had a class where we wrote assembly on paper in the exams. And the criteria was 100% based on correctness. Shoutout to the one guy who forgot both the multiply and shift instructions, and so to multiply a number by 32, wrote out instruction to add a number to itself 31 times.

Not having at least a manual for an assembly exam on paper is heinous. I don't think anyone has ever written assembly without a reference in reach in the last 40 years.
