Well there's one here, I guess two reasons, one is that I don't have any
other assembler and the second is that the mix of BASIC and assembler
is good for prototyping complicated speed sensitive code. I find I tend
to start with a working algorithm implemented in BASIC and convert it
in stages into ARM assembly code, all the while having a working program.
