Re: assembly -- where would you begin
I agree that you are better prepared if you know assembler. I used to program IBM 370 and 390 mainframes in assembler, mainly because I hated COBOL. I learned a ton about how the computers actually worked. Especially one time after a production VSAM catalog maintence program used all its memory in the middle of the night and I had to learn how to add memory by doing GETMAIN's and FREEMAIN's.
Ah, the 80's....
