Both techniques are presented in this book, and each has its own merits for gaining a deeper understanding of computer software and hardware. The assistance provided by Visual Studio's interactive debugger is immense not only for developing real programs but also learning how the CPU instructions work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgrammers learn by example and develop their skills by examining and modifying working programs.
